6600 C2D, are my Temps ok???

[ghosty1234]

lo guys,

my rig:

6600 C2D
Abit AW9D-Max (Bios 1.2)
2x512 Crucial DDR2 PC-6400 4,4,4,12
Thermalright SI 120 with 80cfm Fan

My Settings in Bios:

CPU= 1,425
DDR= 2,25
MCH= 1,55

345 x 9 = 3.100 Mhz
4:5 devider = 431 @4,4,4,12

Only with these Vcore settings, Orthos is stable.
While running Orthos (stress CPU and Ram), CPU is @load 75 Celsius. My PVM´s are @48 Celsius (using Core-Temp).
Is this OK guys?


btw: @Idle CPU= 45 Celsius // PVM´s = 32 Celsius // all kind of throttling-options in Bios are disabled

thx and best regards,
ghosty

I would try to get temps lower. I generally don't let it get about about 55*C but then again I have seen a lot of people around here saying 60 ish is ok. The other question would be how stable is it like that and is it throttling any? Other than all that I would still try to lower temps some.

On a side note I am looking forward to seeing how your C2D does for ya. I am loving my 6600 so I am sure that you will have a blast with yours

i would check the contact of the HSF, because that is a HUGE delta between your idle and load temps. by comparison, i idle at around 48c and load around 60-62c.

also, i would avoid using the 4:5 ratio. just drop to the 8x multi, and use the highest fsb you can while keeping the mem 1:1.

oki guys....my fault...sry for that!

1,375 Vcore on CPU works....now the temps are oki

Well a couple things.

1) Do you really need your ram voltage that high? Not bad leaving it there but for the minimal speed increase over stock it seems overkill.

2) CPU voltage, while it doesn't add much to tempature unlike upping the Mhz, that does seems high in the voltage area. Edit 1.375V is nicer

3) Does your MCH really need to be at 1.55V? Is that a 975 or 965 chipset? I know my chipset (965) good to 400 with just 1.25V on NB if thats the case. Just seems like your loading on the heat without really a reason to.

Definatly reseat the heatsink, those temp differences seem very extreme.

Some people at xs were reporting their CPUs had really high load temps. What's your CPU week code? L6xxxxx on the box.

 

[ghosty1234]

Code: L630A767

now i run:

CPU= 1,375
RAM= 2,25
MCH= 1,52

Temps now @load (Orthos): CPU = 62 Celsius // PVM´s = 39 Celsius

Better than before Dual-SuperPI 8m stable and Orthos Now i´ll ckeck the daily windows stability.

If its Orthos stable you shouldn't have stability issues unless its coming from the ram.

I can run my setup below @ 3.51Ghz w/ 1.5125V and pass 7 seconds of prime yet its totally stable in other aspects that I've used it at. 3.465 is orthos stable w/ 1.525V though.

BTW that was a nice dip in tempature. You thing you still need the MCH (thats the NB voltage right?) needs to be that high?

 

[jtjuska]

good to hear that you got them down!!!

Lets see what that 6600 can do

975x
unfortunatelly yes..1,52 till 1,53. otherwise orthos isnt stable:/.
i tested with 1,50 on mch and 2,2 on ram: not stable
just with 1,52-1,53 and ram 2,25: then stable.

even with 1,50 on mch and 2,25 on ram not stable. well, then i had to give 1,52-1,53 on mch too.

 

[ghosty1234]

@idle

Bios-Settings
cpu= 1,375
ram= 2,25
mch= 1,53

Temps are now oki, even @load (orthos/dual-super-pi 8m).
now i´ll ckeck the windows stability.

[hUMANbEATbOX]

you should really use intel's TAT (click the link that says "telecharger" to download) or CoreTemp by our very own TheCoolest. these will give much more accurate temps than everest.

I see your motherboard temp is 33C. How's your case cooling? I know some motherboards report this higher than the actual case air temp because of sensor location, if you have a thermometer of some kind see what the temp near the CPU fan is. Lowering the ambient air temps that the CPU uses for cooling would help overall temps as well.

lian-li pc 71
2x80mm blowing out
2x80mm blowing in (near the drives)

120mm 80cfm on cpu

idle:

 

[hUMANbEATbOX]

now run some orthos and see what your load temps look like.

 

[deathman20]

Wow first time I've seen the VID lower then 1.325V

 

[hUMANbEATbOX]

Wow first time I've seen the VID lower then 1.325V

this is a week 30 if i remember correctly...maybe that has something to do with it?

Probably.

 

[ghosty1234]

k,i am fed up with it...
i will stay with this setup:

bios:
----
cpu= 1,35
ram= 2,20
mch= 1,50
Code: L630A767

here the pic @load with my new bios settings

 

[hUMANbEATbOX]

those temps are way to hgih for 3000mhz. you need to reseat your cooler.
