View Full Version : how do u
find out your temperature of your chip
without restarting it
if you have a half-decent motherboard it should have temp monitoring abilities. so download a proggie called motherboard monitor from here (http://www.tweakfiles.com), and let it monitor yer temps for ya.

a7v with watercooling. had a peltier on here but scrapped that for future use as a chiller. had nice temps with it though...
that's a home-made watercooling rig, btw. none of this complete plugnplay watercooling for me. too expensive. :(

ahh watercooling, i just bought a 650 duron, going to go with Epox 8KTA3 with a Vantec (the one similar to FOP38 ) i know i wont get as high as you seeing as youve got watercooling but i'll try for 850+.

you shouldn't have any problem getting 850, I'd even say 900 should be no sweat. All the Durons can go to a Gig but it takes a little doing. Does that Vantec have the Delta Black Label? I've got the YS Tech on my FOP32 and it's tolerable but that's to me.... I cant imagine running the Delta.

Thanks for the re-assurance sickboy, ive heard the 600 was the best but i couldnt get my hands on one, so i got the 650, With the cooler above, Epox 8KTA3 (still need to buy ARGGG), arctic silver and a little bit of luck i hope to get 850+, or as you said maybe even 900. ohh yeah and some pc 133 ram.
noise is not an issue for me, i listin to loud music all day and the sound of the 46 decible monster will be shut out with the sound of me weeping for joy if this bad boy hits 900+.
thanks again

My Duron 650 runs at 1045mhz stably, 1075 with the windows open in the office (Chicago winter rules for overclocking). I've got an alpha pal 6035 and good case cooling and it really makes a difference. Too bad my monitor on that comp blew up today.
