ya think bios , and speedfan say its the same... jwele beta core temp prog has it around +4c high than them. If you know of another i would love to test it as temp's i cant even belive. under load the programmes add to the same amount a increase of +4c underload. put it this way my gf complains that its freezing next to my PC. you can feel the air move and love blowing smoke over the top to see the pretty swirls

Apparently the dual cores as a general series have problems with temp monitoring... I have heard 'add 15C and ur at the right temp' being said many a time... Can't cool below the temp of the air around the components lol, do you feel icy cold when you open the case? |

umm... several forums etc where I have questioned the fast that my CPU temp is below room temp (which is impossible), and I have been told to add 15. Really CBA to trawl through the internet in order to find answers to posts I made ages ago...:no: It is actually impossible for the CPU to be below ambient temps with air cooling though... ambient being around 22C http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/forum/2...ture-guide Edited by Cold on 23-02-2008 17:33 |

free has a wolfdale core ..which run a lot cooler than the previous genaeration, it is impossible to get below the source temp of your air.. but case temp is different to room which maybe why his cpu temps are below case temps if the air being supplied to the cpu is mostly sourced from free's 2 x 120mm fans blowing straight on to that Thermalright Ultra 120

i was round MrG's pad today and i gotta say you could chill beer in the G's pooter, i swear. i had the side of his cab off and stuck my hand in there and it's cold..... wind-chill and all that. mind you he has got a lot of big fans in there..it could double up as a hand-dryer\beer fridge maybe. Chill =]

Tom's Hardware shouldn't be trusted to much, in order to get the free kit to create there reviews they tend to be a bit over positive, The guide you have picked out is for 65nm process & does seem to be well written, not sure how differently the 45nm process scales(the core 2 seem to be clocking btter than the quads at 45nm so perhaps there is a thermal capacity issue with cooling the new 45nm quads) according to that toms hardware article.. (C) Offsets between Cores of up to 5c for Quad`s and 3c for Duo`s are normal. |
