Hi guys, great site and forums, my first post
So!
I acquired one of these and coupled with a CoolerMaster V8 and MX2 thermal compound when viewing webpages/doing office work my PC idles at around 40c-43c...
(Ambient temperature is around 22-24c by the way)
This is at stock voltage and clocking (3200mhz)
CMV8 fan spinning at 2000rpm... I also have a Scythe Kama Flex fan capable of 87cfm at full speed... (also 2000rpm)
It's quite noisey at this speeds but aren't my temperatures kind of high ? What do you think ?
Info taken from SpeedFan
Full details:
HDD temp 27c
MB temp 41c
GPU temp 49c
CPU temp 41c
Core temp 43c
Now, I just switched it to Turbo mode (3.7ghz) and gonna let it idle for 10 mins...
Full details after 10mins @ 3712mhz
HDD temp 28c
MB temp 42cc
GPU temp 48c
CPU temp 41c
Core temp 43c
Now considering the overclock shouldn't it go lower?
Also if it can sustain these temperatures on 3.7ghz shouldn't it go lower at 3.2 ?
I'm kind of buffled here
Do you find these temperatures good or do you think there's something wrong here ?
Thanks !
(I'll run 20 mins of Prime95 in both modes and let you know in a subsequent post!)
Also want to add my case is an Apluscase El Diablo (without the sidepanel fan)
For those unfamiliar with it -> Here it is
