damned, my room is hotter than yesterday :( 31°C

Damn hot pc.

a friend of me has an aldi PC. ambient: 30 degrees

with the side panel removed he even can't play games because the machine crashes. his hard drive is about 50degrees

gotta luv Aldi trash

idd, there was a thread about this on telenet frm. Almost every person with a Aldi pc cant game during this hot temperatures.

I mean gaming for several hours, and not pong, pacman etc ;)

Luckelly I got a big ventilator whose blowing in my case. :D

I also tried that, but my temp increased :grum:

damn, major bummer!!

temps are better now...
CPU: 42°
MB: 28°
hd1: 25°
hd2: 20°

(both windows are open and it's quite cold in here...no sunshine, only clouds, nice little wind)

when I left home it was 19°C this morning, sun was shining in Antwerp

arrived in Brussels, pouring rain, I entered the office.. soaked :/

DAMN THIS BELGIAN WEATHER!!!!! :D

It started raining here in Kapellen around ~12:45 :D

it rained all day :(

What do you know, cool 20C, steady rain since last night here in Chicago. Plan on golfing, no more....

hmm; are you sure you live in Chicago? or are you living here in Belgium with the illusion that it is Chicago? ;)

I think the same :D

p4 3.2@3.9

cpu >>> 47degrees stressed here...
room temp>>> 28 degrees
PWM>>> 50degrees

what's wrong with pong huh :spank:

Did some tests again in the last two days reaching 33C in the computer room. Sweating like a pig; turn on the A/C in late afternoon.

I still like the old faithful AVC Sunflower HSF when used with a fan controller this baby stands up to the latest and greatest.;)

today I've been working all day outside, nice and hot, got a nice tan now :-)

Had no i-net today so I went out for a tan, man it was HOOOOOOOOT. :grin: .

running @ 64-64°C here, room temp is near 30°C

WTF, I start freaking out if my cpu reaches 50°C :D .
With al my casefans on low my CPU is +- 50°C now ;)

maybe because the processor is a but undervolted. 1.625V

Running @ 46.5°c CPU fan at full speed (2200Rpm, sucking my SLK947u :^D ), roomtemp 28°c . Ow, and an undervolt of .025V is only 2.1W less heat. If it would be like 1.45V, then you would lose some watts :grin: .

//edit; dropped the fan speed to 1800 and now it's runnin' @ 49.5°

Room temp is also 30+C here.

MBM reports 33C system; one of my temp probes is hanging in the middle of the case (always) and reads 34.5C.

Lian-Li PC-60 (default case fans - two intake; one exhaust and one blowhole on top) - no side panel fan - panel close.
IC7 2.8C @ 245 FSB; 1.675 Vcore.

--------------------------------------------------------------

HSF being retested - Arctic Cooling cheapo running at 2,800 RPM. Hey, with 30C room temp; idles 43C and stressed 60C.

I'll be turning on the house A/C soon afterward.;)

July 7th was equally hot
laptop back then -> hot++++


mm, not planning on stressing it for an extended amount of time now doh, it might explode :s..

hard times for notebook-users

yes, but it is overclocked to 11x200. and I can keep that voltage till 11x223 and than my motherboard cant follow :D.

@ aboroth, the laptop I use ( my fathers) gets much hotter :D.

Than it looses about 4W :D . Damn, you have a good CPU, mine only does 200*11 @1.65 (1.6V real).
Maybe I'm going to lap my SLK, because it runs too hot for being an SLK (and that base, more like a lowQ base, you can see and feel the marks :grum: )

Just for fun;

10.5 x 200 XP1700+ 1.775 Volt - OC'ed ;)
NF-7 X-Dreamer II with side panel fan blocked.
2x80 intake; 2x80 exhaust 1x80 blowhole - all running ~2200rpm
Arctic Cooling 2L HSF - I'm Cheap.:^D

Case temp- present time 32C system; 42C idle.

12.5 x 200 XP-M 2600+ 1.650 Vcore ;) Oc'ed
NF7-S
SLK-800 - I'm not cheap here.;)
Identical case setup with all temps +/- 1C to the system above

yea, altough my CPU runs pretty cool. 39°C semi idle for a XP 2200Mhz.
I stopped crunching a long time ago (add 20°C to CPU and several to the room)
and with this weather, the PC's go off when I'm not using them for any period of time.

Sucky party is that the natural ventilation of my attic is practically zero. I can open the windows all the way, there isn't a breeze unless it's a thunderstorm outside.
And my room fan just broke down:puke:

Living in an Attic is like living next to the PSU in an ATX tower; the hottest spot in any structure. I've been there - the year was 1975; in dog days of summer, it is about 10C higher than the guy living one floor below.

I could "feel" for you.;)

Changed the 92mm, now it has a TT Smart Case FanII@Full speed (blowing). :grin: 37°c full load with a room temp of 29°-30°c :(

//edit, DOH, that is at 166*11@1.37V :( .
//edit2, 2205Mhz, 1.6V, 42.5°c :D
//edit3, same as above, sucking instead of blowing, 44°c

Wow, that's excellent in C/W, I hope your temp reporting is correct 7-8C above ambient.;)

It's only 47W at stock speed and 1.37V. In that case, the C/W is 0.1699. At 77W it's almost the same C/W.
Love the cooling, not the noise :( .

Currently cooling the CPU passive :mad: . It's 46.5°c now, full load and raising.

Ow, one thing to know, I downclocked it to 1100Mhz and dropped the VCore to 1.1V (1.07V real :ws: ). That results in a heat output of 17.3W :ws:

my hero :ws:,nice underclocking ;)

Put the fan back on because it was running 60°c and still going up :( . And now running idle w/o a fa, 35° :grin:

aren't there fan controller which can turn of your fans? maybe usefull if you want to spend some money.

Typo: S/B 1.750 Volt

my a64 rig is suffering too.... :(

Enable cool&quiet. My A64 is 43 degrees idle (27.5 roomtemp) with stock cooler at 1200rpm and c&q enabled. :)

I have an AerogateII, works great :super: .
I'm actualy not looking forward to next week, the expect a heatwave, 34°c and already 26°c tonight :( (and no AIR-CO :grum:, maybe going to the local 'containerpark' to find one)

I think I need better casecooling :).

1*Papst 80mm isn't good enough.
