Heat Problem with the Prescott
Just went to a Prescott 3.0E Ghz

Just running windows is 55C / 131F
In Doom3 temp rose to 78C / 172F, Useing the stock fan that came with the
processor. (Retail)

The stock cpu fan from intel isn't cutt'n it, wtf

So if some one has and suggestions of what type of 3rb party fan would be
good for this processor let me know here in this thread.

I have the 3.2E (P4C800) with a Zalman 7000B-Cu
(http://www.zalmanusa.com/usa/product/code_list.asp?cate=03040506)
cooler (with arctic sliver thermal paste) and my temps are at
44C(no-load, just running XP) to 53C(under load). However you need to
consider your case cooling and ambient temps which will change the
results you may get with Zalman.

Prescotts run hot! I've got the same CPU and this warm weather it's 48
idle and 60 full load (running ClimatePrediction.net). I'm using a
Zalman7000Cu with the fan running top speed, and the case is a
CoolerMaster Praetorian also with the fans running 100%.
Without the Zalman I'm sure mine would be at 78 like yours!

What is the 3.0E safe thermal operating range?

Do you have good case venitlation?

I have a P4 3E and I'm using a Zalman7000Cu with thermatake lanmoto case (2
fan / 120cm)

It works in summer at 49c in idle and 65 under heavy load (doom3 for 2
hours).
