Ineterested to see how others have overclcoked their Conroes to and what kind of temps they are getting with what voltages using what cooler...

Mine...

CPU... 6600
Speed... 3.5Ghz
Voltage... 1.4V
Idel Temp... 35-40C
Full Load... 60ish (using orthos on both cores, 55ish Prime 95 stressing)
Cooler... Scythe Ninja Rev B with Supplied Fan (max 1200rpm)


A bit high for my liking and want to try bring it down slightly...

others....>

Saw 71ºC last night! :eek:

CPU... 6600
Speed... 3.6Ghz
Voltage... 1.4V
IdleTemp... 36ºC
Full Load... 71ºC Just running 3D Mark '06 (Core 0 temp)
Cooler... Intel standard heater

Comparing temps between one another is pretty pointless as each motherboard will have different calibration settings. Also differnt temp monitoring software reads from different sensors therby giving varying results.

Core Temp or Intel Thermal analysis tool (TAT) are regarded as being more accurate than most.
 
Toxic, can you try a little experiment for me, try pushing on the top of the rev B and see if the temps change, just push on the screw ends, not to hard.

This is true...but it still gives others some comparison to what other people are getting with similar systems. Maybe we need to use a common software for measuring the temps. I have been using the software supplied with the Gigabyte motherboard (EasyTune..to read temps and voltage) but using Intel TAT seems to give slighly higher temps.

I will give it a try tonight when I get home. Do you think that the Ninja is not getting enough presure on top of the CPU?
 
CPU... 6600
Speed... 3.75Ghz
Voltage... 1.6V
Idle Temp... 22C(Speedfan)37c(TAT)
Full Load... 32c (Speedfan) 49c(TAT)
Cooler... Custom Alphacool H20
 
Toxic, a friend of mine who is a retired computer scientist and is very very good, he had to take one back because although it fitted to the board it did not clamp hard enough. By pressing down on the cooler made a 10 deg difference in temps! How he found this out is remarkable because the footprint on the base of the cooler was ok.

Its still useful for diff between idle and load though

Do you get much vdroop from 1.6v (is that 1.6v in bios or in windows)? Also what water are you getting to get only 10 degrees diff?
