Hi all

Just about to start my build.
I'm wondering, what should the temps be for a i7 930 thats not been overclock and is just running at stock speeds and settings to start with?
Just to know if I need to reset the HSF.
 
I would expect stock, idle temps around 40c ~ mark, ideally you need to test load temps.
 
Hey,

I am running an i7 920 @ stock with the stock cooler as well in a pretty crap case (1 exhaust fan).

I am getting 40 highest in idle but varies between 36-40 and at load it goes from 60's to highish 60's. the highest I've seen is 69.

These were typical of mine also before I added aftermarket cooling. (though tbh the cooler I bought sucks and gives about the same! :P)

Be warned that this CPU runs pretty hot compared to older style chips. I've read it can handle (when OCing) up to high 90s C at load before you have to panic.
