Black op's system overclock temps?

Danny091 · 5 Dec 2010 at 00:24

Hey, i bought a black op's system from oc (very happy with it so far) im just a little worred about the temps?

It comes with the i7 950 oc to 4.0ghz and

This is it at idle (ish)

This is with prime 95 after 10 mins on small fft's

Thanks for looking

Im just a little conserned it might be on the high side? or it might not be im not intierly sure.

Yes it is a little on the high side, but OC's Guarantee stability, so if you ever have any problems within the warranty them have a word with them.

For 4 Ghz that doesn't look high at all. Nice overclock there.

Under 80c seems good for 4ghz, I get those temps @ 3.8ghz.

You could add a side panel 140mm fan, which would help to cool your mobo down > GPU/CPU.

Temps look about right.

80c is fine for an i7, however I'd still be abit worried as they could shoot up to 90c+ in the summer.

Hey, im wondering if anyone can reccomend a

140MM fan
120mm fan
140mm fan dust filter (that will fit the side vent of the coolermaster HAF 912 PLUS)

Both with 4 pin molex connectors very quite come with all the mounting stuff and not gonna break the bank? I have been looking at the fans on the site and i dunno where to start

would be very much appreciated. Thanks danny.

I haven't checked the connectors and mounting, but basically I'd go for anything by Enermax - If you want quiet go for

Not sure what counts as break the bank for a fan... but both are below £10 ea

Core info for looking on your own is basically airflow - higher is normally better, and noise, tend to find a fairly direct trade off between the two though...

Colder than a custom water loop?

No it isn't.

setter · 6 Dec 2010 at 22:27

Id expect 40 at idle, definitely not at load with air cooling, good custom water wont even run that low at load.

koooowweeee · 7 Dec 2010 at 11:36

was going to mention the summer thing. temps will shoot up i would contact the and tell them your temps now. when summer comes i dont think it will be stable. will shut down from overheating. i would ask for a better cooler.

mp260767 · 7 Dec 2010 at 11:45

what sort of temp is the room at, cos in this weather , unless he has the central heating on high , would have thought a Megahalem would do a bit better than that at idle.

is the cooler seated ok ?

as already mentioned i'd double check with ocuk and make sure everything is ok.

Jock · 7 Dec 2010 at 11:47

Hmm ive got the same system and seem to be getting crashes on black ops quite often where it just sticks and i have to ctrl-alt-del and turn the program off, I wondered if it was something to do with temps and the overclock though will need to run a test tonight to see exactly what temps im getting.

I never used to get any crashes with it, now it crashes 3-4 times a night.

as already mentioned i'd double check with ocuk and make sure everything is ok.

Although thats hoping they will actually respond. so far ive asked them about a problem with the ssd on my sytem and they havent resaponded to either webnote or on the customer services forum.
