CPU Temps - COD

RoEy · 17 Nov 2010 at 21:22

Watercooled 920 D0 @ 4ghz 1.28 Vcore LLC on. L4D2 cpu sits around 60 but COD Black ops gets to around 64-64 on first three cores (graphics all maxed in game). This is with a 4870x2 in the same loop that gets to around 42 when gaming. Is 65 ok for gaming?

Def. fine with 65, nothing to worry about RoEy, try to run Linx "all" setting you will be find your max temp and you overclcok satble.

Yeah just looked at a print screen shot I took when I tested with Linx. Was 70 67 67 65.

Cheers,

Those temps are grand, in game my i7 at 4ghz on air hits about the same, LinX/IBT will push it into the low to mid 70's.

Surely anything above 60'C for a CPU is dangerous?

my q6600 never breaks 60oC when playing black ops... 1900x1200 and everything ramped up

lower the better, but they can stand quite a lot

different architecture, i7's naturally run hotter.
