Ok, so i ran Prime95 with the small FFT's option..


Started at 06:57:33 this morning, and the dam electric went at 14:48:12 so that almost 8 hours. I was going to try and keep it running for 12 hours! :(


Luckily for me i left Core temp on and the logger :D


The highest my cores went were 09:23:12,69°,69°,66°,66°,,,33°,69°,100%


I would say the average was around 67°,67°,63°,63°


I must say am happy with that. 8 hours and stayed under 70 on cores? Heres my log if you want to see more. It goes alot cooler later aswell.

Yeah, 3.2 GHz is a little high for the stock cooler unless you get really lucky and win the CPU lottery - get a CPU with a really low VID.

I am running a Q6600 in an Antec case with a TRUE at 1.425 volts nominal, drooping to 1.40 volts.

I like the 900 case, great cooling, but the case needs some work if you want halfway decent cable mangement:

cheers for that link mate.

 

I had an OCZ SilentXtreme 800W PSU when i 1st got this system. A mate of mine did the cables and i must say did a cracking job on it, was really neat imo, al post a pic soon.

 

But that PSU died and is getting RMAed, so i bought a WinPower and the cables on it are really short, there tidy just not hidden, if that makes sence lol.

 

What clocks yours Q6600 at and temps?

 

edit, heres a pic of my setup now, this PSU is hopefully just a temporary 1 untill i get my SilentXtream back or i got a modular. Plus this WinPower makes quite an anoying high pitch sound lol

As you can see the 8-pin (i think its the 12v) cable ONLY JUST reaches, i mean only just lol, with my OCZ i could thread it around the case so it was hidden, the wires show and are ugly, no wrap around them, i think i might drill an hole next to the PSU and thread the lot through to the back, that will get rid of the big horrible power cable.
