Cpu and System temps

Darren1987 · 21 Mar 2007 at 19:26

i have just bought a scythe ninja cpu cooler. but sadly it didnt actually come packaged with the retaining clips for the fan.. so im still using my zalman flower 9500. however, my cpu temp is around 40-45 at idle. and my system temp is 20.

now this isnt normal i know, i would test the new cooler but cannot as of yet.

my rig is, C2D e6600 @ stock, 7950GT 512mb, 2GB Corsair XMS pro DDR2, Asus P5B deluxe wi-fi/AP, 150GB raptor and a thermaltake armour case with 2x 120mm fans intake and outake, 3 80mm fans one internal blowing onto the chipset, two outtake.

im thinking it could be my cpu cooler but i thought the zalman 9500 was good. any help would be appreciated.

yep i saw that mate but i didnt get them. also the small sticker on the bottom of the cooler was peeled off. makes me think i was sent a returned product.

i checked the box and no wire, or clips

can you get these anywhere easily?

what about my system temps compared to cpu temps isnt it quite a big difference?

i need to return the ninja for a replacement.. :mad:

well i guess ill have to use orthos and see what the max temp goes to?

maybe my ninja will give me much better cpu temps..least i hope so. i have more than enough cooling.

well i just got a tuniq tower and now my temps are 28-30 idle with 20-23 system temps so sorted the temps now my 9500 was getting me 46 degrees idle :confused:

now for the OC

got it clocked to 3Ghz with stock volts @ 1.2875V, 31 degrees idle. going to run orthos and see how it goes.

gotta say the tuniq tower is a beast
