I just built:
E4300 & Scythe ninja 1100P
DS3, Rev 3.3, BIOS F10??
Partiot extreme DDR800
X1950XT
S12 600Watt
My computer had shut down on me a few times when gaming and so I reseated the heatsink using AS5, big dab smack center of the CPU. Before that I had ceramiq, thin layer, all over and the only part making contact was the edges. Center of the heatsink came off completely clean!!!
after shutdown probs I used TAT and was hitting 70 within seconds. After reseating with AS5 I managed to drop the temps a bit. This was my first and second times seating a HS on a C2D. These are my temps now with TAT.
TAT idle = 44-45C
TAT load = 64-65C
This is at stock 1.8Ghz. Is this good/bad or just ok?
I have to set my voltage in bios to 1.368v for speedfan and CPU-Z to read out 1.32v. Which as I understand is what the default V should be for a E4300. Is this right? Do I trust the BIOS setting or waht is read by CPU-Z and Speedfan?? and what about those temps? I want to OC but temps seem too high to start upping the V and FSB?
