Thats good to know thanks.....I was just a little worried from seeing others temps. Is there room for any overclocking with them temps then?

The Gigabyte Neon Cooler 775 a standard cooler is it not? there is no heat pipe tech in it, upgrading the cooler might be and option if my presumptions are correct. If I am wrong someone will put me right

Looks like it.

I'll think I'll just leave it as is then if not much can ge be gained from overclocking. Cheers for the help

Aren't these conroe chips supposed to run really cool with a very low tdp?

Yes, I was reading in the Heatwave thread that Intel specifies if your @roecpu is running hotter than 35°c your not running a standard setup.

Will see if I can find the post

I know, I just don't know what to do tbh, I went out and brought a digital thermometer today, right now it says my room is 30.7°C (feels a lot hotter tho) and atm my X6800 is idle @ 52°C and dual prime @ 84°C :confused:

,

what I don't get is that these are practicly the same temps I used to get on my old P4 550 (3.4) and that was rated @ 115 watts, the only difference was that I using an XP-120 with a 120x38mm Panaflo on that cpu, and on the X6800 I'm using the Scythe Miné, I still have the XP-120 and panflo, do you think it's worth giving it a shot, it's just a pain in the bum installing the XP-120 as you have to remove the mobo.

Could be a fault heatsink i suppose, are others with this cpu having the same problem?

Could be worth a try I'm pretty sure running it that hot is bad. My AMD 3200+ is 89 watts and rated to 70°C, those new Intel's are supposed to be much lower wattage and therefore much lower heat output.

Yep sounds too high, its got a lower heat production as my p4 630, yet i have worse coolign but its a lot cooler as your x6800, try reseating the heatsink, add new as5 paste and make sure its properly touching the cpu, socket 775 can be a pain i forgot 2 of the clips one as a result my cpu was 80C becouse just half of it was actually touching the heatsink...
