HREF="http://www.hardware-unlimited.com/" target="_new">I would like to apologize to Intel on behalf of our throttling issue dealing with the Pentium 4 1.7Ghz. We thought we uncovered throttling in our original review, however we were testing the GeForce 3...

P4 thermal throttling issue while browsing a newsgroup today. It was enough of a concern that the Linux developers made a P4 specific modification to the Linux OS. So basically it looks like there are certain instruction sequences that can cause the P4 to throttle...

Thermal throttling/fan issues. Please help, I've been put through hell by HP's customer support! Okay, here's my problem. I have a HP pavilion dv7-1240us that I bought in January. About a week ago, its fans stopped running at full-speed like they used to....

has 512MB of SDRAM @ 150Mhz CAS 2! It's supposedly to be 72C according to a thread here about two months ago: However, for 1.7 GHz P4 and D8550GB there appears to be a serious problem, either due to thermal throttling or a software (bios) issue. Check...

if that might help Bit of an update - been googling and found references (although i don't believe everything i read!!) about thermal throttling on p4 cpus and how if it was getting activated then you could be having overheating issues - here's one page i found...

the P4 thermal throttling. I am not convinced of either problems myself in either case. I left some questions for Van Smith at the Tech Report about Thermal Throttling since he posted a response there and he hasn't answered back yet. Still the bottom line is...

prime95 run showed an error after 1 hour of success. If CPU thermal throttling was on, it shouldn't be a heat issue though. If it got too hot it'd throttle back, if it got to the damage point, the CPU would have shutdown. If the heatsink was so bad it couldn't...

throttling turned on) - if they don't, then get a new i7 chip, weither you RMA it or pay for a new one (Intel may let you return it, but by disabling thermal throttling and all the other stuff your warranty is well well gone) - if after installing a new CPU,...

be some sort of thermal throttling. EDIT: I'm measuring temp through OCCT and SpeedFan Its a tricky one as I dont think the AMD CPUs thermal throttling kicks in until really high temps! I mean on my rig I can pull the cooler fan power cable of and run OCCT...
