what program is that?

[TheFilePirater]

it came with my mobo, its called warp speed, it lets u see temps and to OC it

[Duffman]

coo

hmm,abu lets think, how many fans do u have? how much uve up'd ur RPM??
dumbass...

huh? i have 1 cpu fan and 3 case fans.

and wat do u mean?

EDIT: oh, i c. do u really think those are correct readings dumbass? is it possible for a stock intel hsf to go that fast? don&#39;t u know that speedfan sometimes give wrong readings? ;) <_<

[Mr. Elmo]

he means ur cpu rpm is at 8000 something while his is at a bit over 3000


btw, i have lost my respect for you due to you amd, intel sig :P j/k

well go ahead....im sure i will remember that for the rest of my life....i will go into hiding just to avoid you. <_<

btw, when did i say you posted nonsense? and really, can you point out to me what the point of this thread is other than to raise his post count?....and what are there to say about this thread anyways?


oh and when i said
wow, you&#39;re just really desperate for post count aren&#39;t you i mean filepirater....so if you think i was talking to you.... <_<

[TheFilePirater]

omfg, this is a forum, not real life...i could care less about the post count cuz u cant see em anymore...

besides, if its a waste of a thread...then mods will delete

jaigandy dude had it. looked interesting. yea, it&#39;s not really true, but looks pretty interesting

[Mr. Elmo]

jaigandy????lol
yea, it&#39;s not really true, but looks pretty interesting huh :huh: :huh:

Abu,
I notice that your magic HDD has gotten even more powerful.

8C in a case in a room with the windows closed.

Next week it will be below zero, I assume?

When that thing goes bad you should donate it to the Smithsonian.

ha ha. lol. maybe i should. but just so u know, the room temp was around 50F. wat is that in C? it&#39;s getting cold here in chicago

[lynx]

84375 rpm?

That&#39;s the sort of reading you get with a crap fan (it&#39;s not Speedfan&#39;s fault).

What? Intel standard? Nuff&#39; said&#33; :frusty:

it weird. if i turn it down to 50%, the rpm displays this crazy #. i think it&#39;s both speedfan&#39;s fault. but without a bad hsf, speedfan won&#39;t give me weird readings either.

Look, speed sensors ARNT THAT COMPLICATED.

If speedfan cant read anything under a 20 dollar fan, than I dont think its the fan company&#39;s fault.

[muchspl2]

no offense but temp means jack dick, its how stable your pc runs and scores on benchmarks your bragging about only a small part of the equation
like saying my ac in my car is better than yours, pointless IMO

Err, not quite, if there was a system that scored XXXXXX on benchmarks, but i could fry concrete on the heatsinks, I would take a different system.

[abu_has_the_power]

how are my scores for my setup? (in sig)

[_John_Lennon_]

They need spaces, it looks like you got 38k on 3dmark 03

good point. well, how r they?

[_John_Lennon_]

They look fine for your 9600, although I get about that on my 9500 Pro easy, which should be expected, seeing as how its a better card. ;)

Go check the futuremark database to compare scores.

You have 17 pages of posts in two weeks and you are going to say stupid shit like that to somebody who has been here for 8 months but only has 11 pages of posts.
I think you need to grow up and stop worrying about what other peoples post counts are.The last time I checked it wasn&#39;t a competition.This forum is here for people to come and ask questions and get or give answers.No need for all the "your just trying to up your post count ." crap.

[Mr. Elmo]

This forum is here for people to come and ask questions and get or give answers

you&#39;re right, but what does this topic do? help ppl?....ermmm no. gives answer to question....no. plea for help?......no

and wtf does it matter how long ive been here? it wouldnt matter if i was here for 2 weeks or 2 years. all that counts is what type of material your post is. i dont give a crap about other peoples post count becuz, well, ill probably beat it in 2 days if i want to...but thats not the point...and who says this is a compitition to start with? you need to calm down, take a deep breath....like you said, this is a forum, no need to get all made and hype up

i give respect to ppl who deserve them, ppl like abu, clocker, john lennon, dwk (errmmm sometimes), vb (errmm when he was mod-less, lol j/k) and others who spent time help ppl out cuz thats how they are, i dont give any respect to ppl who just take up room (in general, dont mean filepirate)

if you dont like me (who wouldnt like elmo?:blink: :blink: :blink: :blink: ) then just ignore me....pretty simple.

[Evil Gemini]

Its not only for Q and A its also for friendly chat.

Whats wrong with that ?

I assume that in the clear light of the new day you have reconsidered this statement and found it wanting.

Temps are very important and monitoring them is a useful diagnostic tool. Improving the airflow in your case can only benefit the stability and longevity of your system whether you OC or not, and benchmarks are an easy way of quantifying and sharing your results.
Saying that your rig "runs cooler" and "seems faster" means nothing to another reader.
Showing that you dropped 4 degC and your PCMark scores improved 300 points gives us all an idea of what really has happened.
I agree that the reliance on test scores simply to brag about the superiority of your system is silly and I am much more impressed by stability/torture tests than simple benchmarks. Being able to run Prime 95 or Folding@Home for 24 hours without errors or crashing tells me that the system is healthy and the setup is optimal.
AquaMark scores just tell me that you have the bucks to buy a nice video card.

Exactly my point, speed sensors are not complicated at all.

Speedfan can only read the info presented by the sensor - if the sensor gives a false reading then Speedfan will report it.

One of the drawbacks of pwm speed control can be the inability to give accurate tachometer readings if the HARDWARE is not designed properly.

The tachometer works by switching the signal on and off to create pulses, and the sensor counts the pulses. Pwm speed control works by switching the supply voltage on and off, but at a much greater rate. If the pwm switching is allowed to pass through the tachometer to the sensor, the sensor will be measuring the pwm switching, not the tachometer.

This can be prevented by using a couple of very cheap components in the fan design, but since pwm speed control is only just becoming commonly used (for computer fans) it has not been important in the past. Fan makers who have not updated their designs will suffer from this sort of problem.

As you see, it IS the fan company&#39;s fault, but price doesn&#39;t come into it. I suspect some expensive fans may well suffer from the same problem simply because they weren&#39;t designed to cope with pwm speed control.
