CPU temperature ?

john80y · 04-23-2002, 03:45 PM

How hot should you let your XP get ?

the_dial_up_boy · 04-09-2003, 01:45 PM

the problem is one and only one
the degrees of the ambient where is the pc......

TrueInsanity · 04-09-2003, 03:07 PM

Underload or idle?

ideal really is 45c load but anything up to 55 load is OK

True

the_dial_up_boy · 04-09-2003, 03:20 PM

ideal is max 19 20 degrees ambient with a cpu on 36 degrees
..i understand only celsius ..sorry...
XD i dono how to calculate the fahreneit but
it should be ambient 66f
cpu 96f

the_dial_up_boy · 04-09-2003, 03:25 PM

here a pic mine by now.....
Ambient degrees is 18 celsius

My processor runs between 47 and 57 degrees. I have an AMD XP200

Cw_strife · 05-08-2003, 07:29 PM

I get about 40C.

TrueInsanity · 05-10-2003, 08:03 AM

I installed a xp2400 to replace my xp1800 and my temps have gone from 44 load to 41 load now

phalkon30 · 05-21-2003, 07:18 PM

I honestly think it depends on the processor some...but I've often wondered this myself

This is my 1800+ OC'd a bit, I'm still messing with it, and thinking of unlocking the multiplier, but its also under full load, and has been for over a year (just a bout straight), does this look good for temps?

(I'll actually post the pic this time...lol)

AMD XP1800
cpu at 35% load.

phalkon30 · 05-22-2003, 07:19 AM

After seeing that, I don't feel so bad

One thing that really lowered my temp, was to hang the power supply out the back of my case (ie: not inside the case), this lowered temps by about ten degrees celcius

In my main rig the XP2000+ (model 6) runs at 45º idle, 56º Celsius for normal to high use. With the old mobo the same CPU would run from 59º to 65º!

But the CPU of the computer that I have in the livingroom (Tbird 1,2 GHz) usually runs at 73º; it's too high but the case is a small half-profile (not best air flow) and the computer is next to the VCR with very little ventilation... Anyway this comp is for gaming (it's plugged to the TV) so I don't use it for long periods of time

48 Deg Celsius here with 100% CPU activity (UD cancer research). Duron 750MHz

Hmm.. brings me back to the days when I was running a Tbird AMD 1500 chip.. weee .. that sucker ran at 165 F or more no matter what I did to cool it.

Was unfortunate that the conductors were so close to the CPU fan mount area though.. when I popped a super orb fan on there to try and help it I fried the mobo.

Have all of you tried the VIA Chipset WPCREDIT cooling Tweak i posted some time back???
It will lower your overall Temps dramatically (as long as you are not running at 100% constantly). Very simple to do...and it is FREE!! (for those of you who are using Via chipsets)
