Hi,

Left my new overclock on for about 8 hours running ORTHOS last night to check for stability(Trying a lower vcore)
When I woke up TAT reported load temps after 8 hours was 47C, This is 465*7 1.35 (3.25Gz)

Anyway on TAT i noticed workload level start button so I pressed them both for each core and my temp jumped from 37C(Idle) to 53C in a split second and continued to rise to about 58C:confused:

Why didn't Orthos have a similar temp, I checked the task menu to make sure 100% cpu when i started Orthos yesterday evening.

Any idea's?
 
In orthos was your priority level set to 1? if so your not stressing the cpu as much as you can and tat was.
 
It was on 1, Tryed it on 10 and it still didn't climb as fast or as high as TAT.Not really a problem, My temps still well within safe zone :) Just wondered what was up.
 
I'd say as long as you stay below 60c you have nothing to worry about.

I had my e6600 clocked @ 3.6 but lowered it as I was hitting mid 60's
 
That looks pretty normal so I wouldn't worry about it. TAT stresses the CPU more than anything else ever will, I believe it uses every instruction set on the CPU and therefore creates an unrealistic load.
 
If you are using orthos while surfing encoding etc then yes a higher priority is better as the other applications will be stealing cpu cycles from orthos. If however (like me) you prefer to run orthos overnight while the PC is idle it makes no difference if you run it at 1 or 10 due to the PC being idle and orthos will then have 99.9% of the demand.

Running orthos at 10 is a bad idea imo as it makes it very difficult to stop the program due to it running in 'realtime'.

Cheers. I'd say you're right there. I just got home and tested it at priority 10 and XP became very very unresponsive. Running it a 9 with no such slow down

Out of interest, what volts are you running the e6300 on?...and if DS3 board, what bios release?

Cheers!

461*7 I can run stock volts (1.325)
465*7 requires 1.375v

This is using F4 bios on DS3.
