WIERD!!!! CPU TO COLD???

[PFZ1]

Well just installed my q6600 GO@stock stuck on my new zalmans 9700cu @1200rpm booted into bios on my Asus P5B M/B and noticed that the cpu temp was 16oC mmmm... so went into XP and the temp went down to 10 oC...

played crysis for an hour hottest it got was 30 oC..., So thought thats wrong installed Fanspeed said the same then installed core temp with same results???

Ambient Room Temp 19oC
Case Temp 24oC
System 35oC


Well i know most ppl say if it`s cold dont worry , but thats beating da shat out of some water cooled systems LOL!!! :lol:

ran 3dmark06 sad only got 13k

Well hopefully ppl can work that out coz it`s stumped me???

Sys SPECS

Q6600@2.4mhz
Asus P5B M/B
Corsair 2Gb 1066mhz Mem
ATI HD4870 1Gb
Zalmans 9700cu
4x Sata HD


Thanks for the HELP!!!!

19 is your room temperature? if so... then there might be a LITTLE chance that these results are true (except the 10 degrees, that's impossible). You really should try to get this thing to 4GHz if it's that cold there (where you from?).

uhhhh open the case, put your finger on the heat sink. If you get burnt, then i guess its time to get a new mobo thermometer?

This seems about right to me "Played Crysis for an hour hottest it got was 30C" If you are in a 19 degree room.

Some times the sensors are not accurate until you exceed 60.

I do agree with olemmiwinks, use your build in termomemter (finger) to test.

13K for 3dmark06 is abysmal! That's less than what I get with a stock clocked E8400, yeah and that's a dual!

well just OC to 3.2mhz could go higher but moaning power adjustments needed sat there for a min with whole of my hand covering H/S LUKE WARM??? temps at 3.2 22oC idle 45oC after playing crysis

MMMM waiting for it to blow up

Intel's latest post about the subject was that anything reading under 50C should be considered inaccurate. Worst case when it gets close to 90C it'll shut itself off, so what do you have to lose?

19 degrees isnt that cold, unless you arent aware he's talking in Celsius.

45c load @ 3.2ghz isn't hard to believe, assuming you haven't had to bump the vcore by very much. My q6600 G0 idles in the low 30s and maxes around ~40c (but that's 3.0ghz @ 1.29v w/ Scythe Ninja Rev. B)

Of course, bear in mind what rockbyter said about Intel's latest info on temps.
