Temps

[Duffman]

i was just reading around the board when clocker told someone to download aida32 to find stuff about your system, so i come across temp settings, ddin't even know i have them lol, mobo 31C and 39C how are these temps for some one with wires everywhere 2 fans and not trying to get them lower

[Mr. Elmo]

IF you're not trying to get htem lower, would it matter what we tell you about the temps?

btw, its good

[Duffman]

well if they were high then id do something but im gonna gut holes and build a fan bag contraption

[clocker]

Duffman,
I assume that the 39c temp is your processor and that you were idling at the time.

Correcto?

[GCNaddict]

what r ur load temps?

whats ur processur clocked at? who made it?

[Duffman]

um im not sure if it was idle, don't know anything about the temps, amd 1800 1.53 not overclocked but i plan on beging research about ocing soon

[clocker]

You can check your processor use with the Task Manager (ctrl+alt+del). At the bottom of the screen it will say "CPU Usage".

39c isn't a terrible idle temp, but if you are considering clocking up you will have to keep an eye on the temps very closely.
You might consider installing the Folding@Home app and running a few work units and see what your temps are at 100% CPU use.
Then you'll know where you stand.

[Duffman]

well im gonna dl folding@home should i join a team or just go solo

If you want any more help from us you had better join the KLF team. :P
Elsewise we shall banish you to the Lounge and you can see how much Jonno knows about computers ( assuming that you can get his attention).

[Duffman]

i did i did, after a few minutes the cpu under load stabilized 57/58C

[bigdawgfoxx]

Thats kinda high...

[Duffman]

maybe its the new video card i added, or the dvd burner, or the hd

Yes.

As I said before, your temps are not terrible but lower is better, so why not?

[Duffman]

well what else helps, will one lone fan make a big difference, should i try to make a better airflow with round cable, new hsf
