ASUS Maximus II Formula: 55°C with the same chipset

http://communities.intel.com/thread/9887

EVGA Classified's NB/SB run at about 70 degrees Celsius

MSI X58 Platinum 60 °C --> 76 -- 81

and sure many others are with same temperature

If that is a problem add a special cooler for the chipset ( possible to have some 45 °C as me )

Thx F5BJR for your suggestions!:)

So if the temp is ok, maybe my palit gt 430 dont work ok?
or "maybe" is the program "total media theater 5"?

Last night i was watching a movie, audio and video on hdmi.
About at the end, tmt5 freeze while i still hear the audio....lol.... and i had to
force to close the program.
Thats happen too often!

maybe i have to try another player...like pwerdvd 11.
or maybe i have to upgrade my gt 430?

*sigh*

my other htpc is almost the same, asus motherboard, i3 550, 4gb ddr3 kingston,
but i have a palit gts 450 and never had a single problem...using the same program, tmt5.

dunno what to think about now...confused...busted!

Sometimes these things don't seem to follow a logical route and as in your case will work fine on one machine and give a load of grief on a similar one. Just computers for you!

[bbwalker]

i know....i have 4 computers...

maybe i need a total break and
open a little bar on a tropical island... lol

Hey if you need a partner for the bar just shout!

At the end, finally the "right solution" for this motherboard with serious hardaware problems:

I found a "dummy" that buy my motherboard.

Luckily I lost in 6 months only few money.
So I advise all the unfortunate owners to do what I done: SELL IT!! and switch to other brands (that works PERFECT with all my other hardware, WD green include!!!)

goodbye forever Gigabyte, goodbye...

hello "excellent" job of a gigabyte, I managed to kill the processor (i7 870) to the motherboard, did a nice little hole in one of the feet. I do not buy more gigabyte motherboard

Hi

I suspect that you were overclocking it at the time and if so can hardly blame Gigabyte for your problem! This does happen on occasion and usually it is when the board is overclocked and overvolted and then the CPU lands can burn out.

Can you post a picture of it please?

no overclocking, all the default settings.

[Dark Mantis]

In that case please post some photos of the damage to both the socket and CPU then.

the socket does not show anything, just a few seconds felpörgeti the fans and it is. I sent back to the shop the motherboard, the processor so I can not guarantee to send out

[Dark Mantis]

Thanks for that but the quality is far to poor to see any detail. If possible can you take a better photo(macro mode) and of the socket please.

[petko37]

were similar problems in the previous post, the first factory intel cooler restarted or shut down the machine, followed by a copper tube cooler longer, (World of Warcraft), but again, Crysis 2 has stopped the machine, a lot of testing and temperature monitoring I noticed that the (north Bridge), an extra warm with fan is less than the machine stopped. it seems too little to north bridge ribs

tomorrow I can do a better image processor, the motherboard is sent back to the shop

[Dark Mantis]

Ok thanks.
