Temperature monitoring of new system.
« on: October 23, 2014, 10:36:22 am »
Hey all,

I have just bought and setup my new system over the last couple of days (see sig below) and have done some temperature monitoring.


Chassis used is a Thermaltake Armor case with the following cooling:
2 x 120mm front intake fans,
1 x 90mm top exhaust fan,
1 x 120mm and 1 x 90mm rear exhaust fans,
1 x 80mm Antec spot cooler (RAM area).


I have used Prime95 to stress the CPU and Firmark 1.14.1.4 to stress the GPU and both ran together for over 1 hour.


Ambient room temperature = 24oc

Ambient case temperature (External front) = 25oc
Ambient case temperature (External rear) = 28oc


CPU temps while running Prine95 for 1 Hour = 61oc (stock cooler) - [Coretemp 1.0 RC6]
GPU temps while running Firmark for 1 Hour = 77oc @ 44%  fan speed (Tri-X Cooler) - [TechPowerup GPU-Z 0.7.9]


NOTE: CPU showed 100% @ only 3.7GHz +/- (189 x 20) and not its 4.0GHz stock speed or 4.3GHz turbo speed.......


10 minute cool down = CPU @ 33oc and GPU @ 37oc


Are these temp OK?


Cheers,

worf105


P.S.  Would my OCZ Vendetta 2 do a better cooling job than the current stock cooler?

Update:

After reading this: http://www.frostytech.com/articleview.cfm?articleid=2655&page=4

I decided to install my OCZ Vendetta 2 and ran the same above tests.



Results are now: CPU @ 48oc and GPU @ 74oc  ;D



These results will do until I get some recommendations for better air cooling for my CPU.......

I just change the cooler on mine because it wasn't really touching the middle of the CPU. The only other thing is going to a water cooler.

On mine it really didn't change the temp in the bios. They were still all over the place. It will go from 28c - 31c - 35c - 28c - 32c up and down.

I'm going to give it couple of days of running and than pull the cooler back off. To see if is showing me the same thing not touching in the middle.

I just check my the temps with CPUID HWMonitor Pro. The Temps are at about 24c in windows.

Because most of them are junk for any high end CPU. I have found that it is even worse on the FM1 & FM2 CPU's

You need a good cooler for those CPU's too. If you don't they will all run on the hot side too.

The only decent (Armor) cases are those with a 200 mm side door fan - the rest is junk!
