i have 2 identical systems..... both running a q6600 and a DG31PR
the only difference is that one cpu has the slightly smaller aluminum core stock intel HSF and the other has the copper HSF.
the 1st system's motherboard temps stays at around 45C ( with the cpu running hot at 55 cuz of the aluminum HSF)
the newer system i built has the motherboard temps touching 75C ( cpu stays cool at 37C with copper HSF)
the airflow, cable management is all fine.... why is this board running at such high temps
could the HSF be spreading heat to teh mobo? or is it a defect in the mobo which is causing such temps. maybe some capisitor heating up?
i cant swap HSF'S cuz i gave the system with the cooler mobo away to my friend.
i cant return the motherboard to my dealer too cuz its almost 2 weeks old, the temps have been high ever since i opened it up.
whats the problem and can someone help me with a solution pls???
ive tried almost EVERYTHING
just tell me if its the mobo or could it be the HSF spreading the heat...
sorry ive posted this earlier last week.... but the 75C is really worrying me!
