e6600 geting to hot

[Cupra]

off topic i know... but is there anything like tat for nvidia chipsets as tat wont work on my rig.. i use coretemp and im getting 35idle 65load

Might try some arctic silver see if it helps, just about the only thing i haven't tried so far using the stuff that came with the AF7 atm.

That'll be ac mx-1 then... which is better than as5

tat doesnt work on nviddia chips. it will crash on startup.

why dont you lap the cpu?

 

[Things change I've changed]

Hi, well I'm sorry you think that the pictures I have posted are some kinda setup. It is the truth, this CPU is doing great things running at a vcore of just 1.18. It is solid, stable and is running those temps. If you don't believe me then there is not much else I can do unless you can suggest some other means by which I can convince you. Here is another screen dump taken after the PC has been running for around four hours, the ambient temp of the room is 24c, this time using everest. Think about it, why would I bother to concoct a story?

dude I don't think your lieing mate, I just did'nt think it was possible, I thought mayby TAT was giving false information, if it really is possible to get temps down that low on air then I think I'm gonna have to start playing around with my E6300's cooling then, according to TAT my 6300 @ 2.6 on stock volts idles around 42C with ambient room temp @ 24C, playing farcry it edges upto 65C, now if you guys are giving correct temps which it looks like you are then I'm not a happy chappy , I'm using AS5 which I've re-applied a couple of times in the past and the temps seem to stay the same, heres my setup,

Yea 1.18 vcore is a phoney overclock we can all do that and get low temps.
My 4300 can run at 3.2 ghz fine most stuff on default vcore but it wont pass orthos or prime so it's pointless and forget 1.18 vcore lmao.

Hi, what makes you sate that 1.18 is phoney overclock, I meant phoney? If I am running at 3ghz on a vcore of 1.18 and it is stable and cool what is phoney about that? There are other posts that have the same claims in this forum.
I'll tell you what I'll run orthos and see what happens, however, to my mind, if it is stable with what I do then it is stable enough. If it can run Farcry at it's highest settings, Stalker too, and never have one issue, then in the real world it is stable and it is orthos and prime that is phoney...

EDIT: As I expected orthos failed after about 3mins, but do I really care?

thats why its heating up. Applying a thick layer of AS 5 or applying it every so often will actually make your processor heatup much more, because your basically trapping heat by applying too much or applying again and again. What I did, was just use a pea sized amount and then evenly applying on the cpu. It works fine. If I were you I wd take off the compund completelty from the CPU the heatsink, and then take a pea sized amount and apply half the quantity on the heatsink and the other half on the cpu. shd then be ok.

It's not stable your OS could get corrupted at any point
that's why people use orthos and prime for data integrity.

my e6600 runs VERY hot. thats why i cant push it much above 3.2ghz

Rubbish, I know my system, you don't, I know it is stable, you don't. You are missing the whole point really, the exercise is to get the system as cool as possible with a fairly ok OC. As that objective has been reached I am now able to have the peace of mind that it will not shorten its life by running too hot.

The reason orthos may have failed is because I am also undervolting the memory chips, they are running at 1.8volts, not the 2.1 they are rated at.

I had a motherboard a few years back that would consistently fail prime, yet again, it never crashed and it took every real world application I could throw at it, games, software, all bar prime. I was told then that it was unstable as well, it lasted longer than some of the more recent motherboards I care to mention and it is still running to this day in my HTPC

You seem to think I don't know what I'm talking about, I know the risks involved, that is my decision, not yours, to make....
