Overheating problems

[asingh]

What is CPU ID HM...? Which GPU drivers are you on..?

 

[coderunknown]

Ok guys one more update on my CPU temp.
I have added 2 intake fans on the side panel, this combined with hacked Pstates.

Processor idles at 37 degrees C , when room temp is 31 degrees C.

Recently i have added a HD5670, so the temps have gone up by 2 degrees C.

So effective temp as per my calcuations with out HD5670 would be 35 degrees C.

3 intake & 1 exhaust is the cause i feel.

CPU ID hardware monitor. I am using the drivers which came in the CD. Do i need to update the drivers ? If so suggest the latest version i should upgrade to and URL for the drivers download please

 

[asingh]

Download the latest set from here.

Check the temperatures using CCC and running Furmark.

Ok installed the latest drivers for my GPU. what is CCC ? catalyst control center ?

 

[asingh]

^^
Yes correct. Run Furmark and see the temperatures.

my x4 635 is running at 60 C when idle(it is when i slow down the CPU fan speed-it has got 7 speed options :1 being slowest and 7 being fastest- i make it run at 6)

any suggestions?

60C or 60F ? you didn't post the results i asked you to . did you ?

 

[coderunknown]

60C or 60F ?

60C @ idle? than at load it'll heat upto 80C. pc will auto shutdown. either piyush baba's pc went mad (the monitoring software is a crazy piece of sh**) or something terribly wrong.

you didn't post the results i asked you to . did you ?

he never does

as he has said he was running the fan speed as slowest as possible and he is getting 60c on idle.

The heating prob can be solved by running the fan at a higher speed I guess anyway.

@ piyush120290 - what's the idle temp and load you are getting by running the fan in "6" position as you pointed out "7" being the highest setting.

BTw, use pickpick or faststone capture to take screenshots - for temp monitoring use coretemp or HWmonitor or everest.

@pulsar
how do i make the thumbnails?
or should i post it to some image hosting site and post the link here?

@sam
its 60 C

@topgear
i am using 3 different utilities to check

1:AMD overdrive
2:MSI overclocking centre->always shows 10 deg more than AMD overdrive utility
3:Coretemp->showing only 1st core temperature and not all the 4 cores

do u know any other which is dependable?

no
i'm running at 6 speed which is default
7 is the highest

Create an ID on imageshack. And using the 'image' icon in the posting box here, embed the URL, it will show up as an image when someone browses your thread. This also negates hotlinking.

Remove the desktop OC software. They do more harm then good. Use HWMonitor, it should show temperatures of all 4 cores, also Lavalys Everest is decent. Who assembled your system, was TIM used on the HSF/CPU contact surface..?

X4 635 gets a HDT cooler ? i

@ piyush120290 - are you using the latest version of coretemp ??

ok guys

everything is fine now
i just installed a side panel fan
and guess what the temperature readings are...

lowest ever i saw on my PC 24 degrees
idle temperature 31degrees
on load 45 degrees(max 50 but not beyond it)

 

[pulsar_swift]

installing side fan has such drastic impact on the temps ? How ? I can see its a intake, why don't you post pics of ur cabinet with the side panel open and how the things are inside ?

ok thats much much better. BTW how many fans you got & in what status & position (intake/outtake & front, side, back?)?

 

[Piyush]

@swift and sam
yes it did
actually AC was running at background
currently only 3 fans
side(80mm)
front and rear (120mm each)

hi friends pl help me to 'overcome' the overheat problems.

my config -
Asus M3N78-EM motherboard
AMD6400 X2 (3.2. GHZ)
2GB DDR2 (800 MHZ)
nvidia 9600GT 512 MB gpu
WD 80GB and 500GB HDD
Cooler Master 600 W PSU

here is my problem from past 3 weeks;

my system is restarted after 1 or two minutes while i switch on first time. after restarting, it does not load bios. but cpu and chasis fan are run as
usual. motherboard led indicator is glowing 'green'.
my system boot normally after some time (15-30 minutes)

I have checked with standby RAM, PSU but no use. the problem still going.

later i have used the Asus PC PRobe to find the temp;
my temp is HDD is 42-45'c, cpu - 46-53, gpu 43, motherboard 43-47.

chasis has two side fans. no rear and front fans. my processor has come with med size heatsink with fan.

my pc runs fine 9 months without any heat problem.

i have also found that when motherboard temp touches 43, the above problem arised.
Now i have remove the chasis side pan and placed a table fan to maintain the motherboard temp less than 40 so that i have to use the system contineiusly.

this problem is in around Motherboard temp?
what is the best solutions ?

Is that a CM Extreme PSU..?
