Run it at full load for about an hour at least and see what the temps are.

Make sure you apply a VERY thing layer of AS5.

Run Folding at home or a burn in test.

kaiweler, he has his 2500 barton at 3200 with very cool temps.. 30degrees cpu i think. He is applying AS5 today so that should lower his temps even more..

EDIT: he also has 7 fans

[bigdawgfoxx]

I dont believe his temps are being read right really....

Yes, run it for an hour, then tell us the temps. 40C Idle seems kinda high...how many case fans do you have and where are they?

These are mine RIGHT NOW, after playing cs for a while but now pretty much just sitting idle
and btw, my room is cold
and that is at 3200+ speeds

I didnt say YOU werent reading them right..I was talking about you motherboard might not be reading the temps right. But I saw a screenshot where it started at 17C and there its not at full load or nething and its at 39C...thats a big diff and kinda wierd.

I think sometime we should buy a small refridgerator..and put our cpu in that...that would be tight haha

lol.

F@H is download a new core or something?

shit how long does this take...

[abu_has_the_power]

u have to wait a while for the as5 to start working b4 u start to c any temp changes. i think u have to have the cpu run for 72 hrs (max) b4 u start to c temp changes.
