dual core prime jumps to 59 and 60 within a matter of seconnds

[jimbofett]

just fitted my new dual opty 170

clocked at 2.71 @ 1.3750 v

idle temps of 32 and 35

ran orthos and within about 10 seconds the temps jumped to 59 - 60

any ideas??

bit of a n00b when it comes to clocking

any help will be greatly appreciated

jedit* may need to be in overclocking and cooling

the stock cooler

have been using it with a single core 64

temps were fine with that chip tho

 

[jimbofett]

lol

ok


had an arctic cooler that broke

so have been using the opty fan with the 3700

uninstalled the 3700 and am now using the opty stock fan with the opty


make sense??

anyway

didnt clean the crap off the fan so mebbes thats it


cheers for the replies

appreciate it

ok

cleaned the crap off

reinstalled it


is 27 and 35 idle

tried prime at stock

goes max 56 which is a little to high for my liking


but a definate improvement

u think a better cooler will make a huge diff??

 

[jimbofett]

yeah i cleaned it with akasa tim clean


and applied a tiny bit of arctic silver etc etc


does it take time for that to settle and make a diff??


again

cheers for the replies appreciate it

 

[jimbofett]

ok

got me arctic cooler gonna install it now

quick question

after cleaning the cpu do i need to reapply thermal paste or can i just leave it with the stuff on the bottom of the fan??

 

[jimbofett]

installed it

huge diff

priming atm @ stock

no huge jumps in temp

cheers for all the help



priming at 2.8 @ 1.376v temps are 44 and 53 not too bad i guess, huge improvement
