Ocz vendetta 2 temps

guys i have a phenom II 940 running on a gigabyte ga-ma790gp-ud4h mobo.

i recently purchased an ocz vendetta 2 cooler and i am using it with the supplied paste.

i have oced it to 3.35ghz and its running stable at 1.241volts

the idle temps are around 45c
and on load its around 55c

are these temps okay??

plz suggest i think they are a bit high.

The idle temp seems a bit high, but the load temp seems fine I usually don't let the CPU go 60C+

55C seems around right for a Vendetta 2.

my ambient temperature is around 30c. and the temp inside the case as reported by the bios is around 38c.

i am using ga-ma790gp-ud4h motherboard.

My hardware monitor in BIOS report 40C at idle, but my cores are all at 23C idle. Seriously, I am really wondering what is the matter. If the cores are at 23C, the cpu should be around the same temp. My HS is really cool. I really doubt my cpu could actually be at 40C. Anyone got a clue?



Here are my result in X4 underclocked at 1.175V

It's a normal issue when unleashing the fourth core of a Phenom II X3 720. I am running using the 4 cores and not 3.

The sacrifice is that your cpu core censors are disable...

but how are my temperatures??? and what are your ambient temps???

my core temps and cpu temps are the same and i have tried using almost all tem reading tools. there is hardly 1-2c difference.

so where is the problem?? should i reseT THE HEatsink?

If you applied one half grain rice of thermal paste, you should be alright. Reseating your HS will probably don't change anything.

Get HWmonitor and Coretemp to see your DTS temperature. Tt should be around 35C. On my motherboard, the cpu thermal sensor have gone mad and it doesn't render the right temperature.

There is no way in hell my cpu can be at 38C while the inside stand at 24C.
