Amd Xp 1700+ Temp Prob.

[Ilkerguler]

My system:

- Amd Xp 1700+ (NO OC)

- Asus A7V266-E MAINBOARD

- 256MB PC2100 KINGSTON DDR

- SB LIVE 5.1

- GF2 MX400

etc ...


My cooling system:

- Cooler Master DP5-7H53F-OC

Its about 5000RPM..

Here it is.. (http://www.coolermaster.com/products/cpucooler/fcpga/dp5-7h53f.html)

- 3 Case fans near cpu


Cpu Temperatures..

- 2 Hours idle

58C


- When surfing etc..

65C

- LOADED

73C

- FULL LOADED

78-80C :eek:


My room temp is 25C.

My case is always open.

I have enough thermal paste on my cpu.

:mad:

IS MY MOBO READS FALSE? :confused:

That's waaaaaaaaaaaay too high!.

Make sure your Heatsink it seated properly. Check that first.
Where are you reading those temps from?
You need to lower those temps.

[Ilkerguler]

I read it from my bios but sometimes i use Sisoftsandra.

Im sure that my heatsink was seated properly.

[james.miller]

possible too much paste?

[Exar Jun]

I would clean of you paste from the core and heatsink and reapply a thin layer. You may want to look into better cooling maybe a volcano 7 or ax7.

You may be having the wrong temps displayed for you too. If you still have this problem get a thermal sensor and stick it in between the hs and chip...BUT NOT ON THE CORE!! Just by the core. you will get a much more accurate temps this way.

[rogerdugans]

WAY bad, man!

Does that board read the internal diode...methinks it does: that would mean that while it is accurate, it will show about 10c higher than most of us with our in-socket thermistors.

Still too hot though!

No thermal pad, right? You did use thermal compound, right?

Did you lap the heat sink? Is the heatsink visibly damaged?

Is the fan on the heatsink turning at the proper rpm?

[Ilkerguler]

I clean the paste and it works at 55C idle.

I dunno where my mobo reads the temp.

My heatsink works properly. its working at 5000 rpm though its written 4300 rpm in its page.

[james.miller]

better but still to hot.probably that heatsink

[james.miller]

that heatsink doesnt look good enough for an xp.

[Ilkerguler]

I think so. I ll buy this one.

Here (http://www.coolermaster.com.hk/en/products/cooler/hhc-001.html)

I cant buy Volcano or AX7 because I live in Turkey.

[james.miller]

i couldnt tell you how good that is. you should make a post in the cooling section to se before you buy it

[RnPgrosz]

Its a junky aluminum heatsink, ditch it and get an AX-7 or SLK800 or whatever it is that you can get. The Asus boards do read the ondie temps but that is still way too hot. Luck you didn't burn up.

Umm... the A7V266-E doesn't read the on die temps. As far as I can tell from their website there's no new revision of the board that has this feature, and I know for a fact that the original revision of the board does not either, as I own one myself. However, those temps are too high, even for an ASUS board (in my experience they read higher than most other boards, but then again, who's to say that their readings are not better... it's not as if the low temps you see posted all the time are always accurate :rolleyes: ).

All current Asus boards read the ondie temps. Its not like it would just be a new revision that does, their motherboards have been reading the ondie temps for a while. I own Asus boards also and I know for a fact that they do. Everybody is always saying Asus boards report high temps, this is not because they are incorrect or inaccurate.

[Skulemate]

Ok then, whatever you say. However, my A7V266-E does not read the internal diode in the XP CPUs, and like I said, ASUS itself does not advertise it as a feature on any of their websites. As I said before, this may be a feature on newer revisions of the board, but as far as I know, that's not the case.

I agree with your last comment though about the ASUS temps... that's what I was getting at myself

[hellrazrblade]

about the heatpipe, i have one on my 1700+ and it puts temps around 38c. I really dont like the noise though, so i fandapted. i would say get the ax7, you'll be happier with the noise options on the fans. (the heatpipe comes with a fan similar to the delta 38)
