justinlay 24 Report post · CID: 198260196218 Posted January 12, 2009 Just put this new machine together for a friend, and was wondering what temps i was getting. I didnt think these are correct temps even though I have a massave heatsink and fan on it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

justinlay 24 Report post · CID: 198260196218 Posted January 12, 2009 You think them temps are correct? Its currently 75F in the house, and its been up and running for 3 hours doing windows updates Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coknuck 146 Report post · CID: 6798787092690 Posted January 12, 2009 I'd say its probably cool as heck in there. No heat containment at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
justinlay 24 Report post · CID: 198260196218 Posted January 12, 2009 Yeah there's also a 120mm fan right next to the headsink pulling air out. At least dont haft to worry about cooking this cpu Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TimPawlak 0 Report post · CID: 900750427779 Posted January 12, 2009 lol... theres no way scientifically that a cpu can run that cool unless its outside in the cold. i have never in my life seen one run that cool. get a temp gague and stick it on the cpu heatsinc =) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Blako 5 Report post · CID: 6985680976629 Posted January 12, 2009 If all your using is a heatsink and airflow, the best you can do is to approach the ambient temperature. Now I'm just doing my best estimates here so please oblige. If one of you would like to correct this list go for it. Air: 10-50 degrees Celsius over ambient. Water: 5-30 degrees Celsius over ambient. Chilled water: 0 - 20 degrees Celsius over ambient TEC: 5 below - 20 over ambient Phase change: 60 below - 30 below ambient Liquid Nitrogen: 200 below - 100 below ambient Its only thermodynamics http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_conductivity Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biker9075 0 Report post · CID: 8997497507258 Posted January 12, 2009 The CPU could have a bad sensor. Because like others said, there's no way that just a fan will let it run below ambient temps Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because like others said, there's no way that just a fan will let it run below ambient temps I think it was just the program, in bios it look correct.

I've seen CPU's run at - 20 using liquid nitrogen for cooling, and other's using a liquid cooling method run at around 0 So how many home folk are running liquid nitrogen for cooling, ? indeed Blako is right enough , from my own limited home user experience , if with aircooling you can get to within +10 C of ambient you are doing OK , with water cooling maybe within + 5C , and thats not using a chiller for the water , any readings outside that range I would expect it to be a sensor or program error , the old tried and tested way was to grip the heatsink body , if it felt cool it was OK, if warm to touch again ok , if you couldn't hold it , you had a problem , .
