My Ac Freezer 64 Pro on my opty 148 clocked at 2.8ghz in Smartguardian is showing 28/29c idle and 41c load! i have a panaflo m1A sitting in my room doing nothing so i'm considering jumping to a Xp-120 thoughts on this? will my temps really drop much lower than they already are?
No harris, I doubt it.
The 22c idle temps reported seem suspect, most cases are higher than 22c(most rooms are around 20c) so unless they have the case next to a windows and are using 120mm delta fans 22c seems doubtful.
As someone else said they were getting temps of 23c idle using a temp probe that wasnt fitted correctly, when they actually checked with software it was reporting 40c+

No its true, I seen my chip idle @22°C a few times, it's my first A64 so all the rumours I heard about them running cool are indeed true. I do have a monster case though.
Full load right now:
Chipset - 29°C
Opteron 146 - 34°C
Mosfets - 32°C
Hard Disk - 24°C

Big.Wayne how do you get the hard disk temperature or do you need a sensor on it?
Hi,Mikey1280 said:
No MBM5 has an option to detect your HDD temps. It seems all modern hard-disks have built-in sensors (maybe part of S.M.A.R.T?) so you just need a suitable monitoring program (Like MBM5 or other?) that allows you to select custom readings. . .

OK thanks Big.Wayne, I will get MBM5 but have currently been using Epox thunderprobe. My hard drive is about 2 or 3 years old so I am not sure if it will support this but I will try.
