post your Conroe temps!

E6300
471 fsb 3.3ghz
V core 1.45+1v
Mem 1.92v
NB 1.748v
CPU 34C in Bios/ 22C idle with coretemp/46C during Orthos
Room temp 20C next to PC.

It is puzzling however how a CPU can determine the accuracy of program that measures temps, rather than the diode/internal sensor on the mobo itself.

Puzzling is what PC Hardware is all about, most of us used to just play with a rubics cube, now we have the PC to keep us amused! :)

As far as I am aware, the temps on Core2 Duo processors are taken from the cpu itself, its not like the old style cpus where the sensor is on the mobo.

I wanna know why the temp reading on the e4300 is so different to that of the e6xxx series?

I'll post some pics of before and after with results of any further reduction in temps as soon as i've lapped my SI-120 and IHS. I'll void my CPU, but what the hell.

I lapped my E6300 and was very surprised how high the corners sat.

Just a quickly by seeming you lot are all experienced in the cooling biso is the Zalman CNPS9700-LED Aero Flower any good, I plan on getting a Intel E6600 and overclocking it to 3.2-3.4Ghz?

With sufficient airflow in your case, it will hold its own against the big boys.

But I suggest you quickly snap up a Tuniq Tower on special offer this week.

Generally considered the best heatsink this side of the cooling market.

Probably a difference with the spec on the Allendale sensors, and TAT being an intel App knows how to compensate? Dunno just a guess :). Your right about the sensors being inside the cpu for all Core2's. The motherboard sensors arnt really needed at all for Core2.

65 degrees is the max temp if you go by the motherboard sensor, 85 by the processors internal sensors.
 
Max safe 'recommended' temp without frying the chip and voiding warrenty.

Although that said like P4 Core2's have thermal throttle so once they hit that TAT temp of 85ish, they will throttle back to save their hides. Never managed to get any of my chips to throttle, and to be honest too 'chicken' to try and force them into it ;P

Yeah but the thing is Im not ordering anything until April and Also I wanted the Zalman one for its looks :p
 
Well ok I'm running at stock speeds, but still I'm happy with it, as the TT fan is currently at half speed, and all the other system fans are on low.

If he's taking the temp off PC Probe then it will be wrong. PC Probe always measures lower than the temp TAT gives in some case up to 15C lower depending on weather PECI is enabled or not.

I run the cooler you're looking at on an E6600. The chip is OC'd at 3060MHz and runs at 38idle, 55-57 load. (Using TAT) I could push the chip to the 3300MHz range but see no actually point beyond bragging rights.

Your CPU temp is most likey wrong, can't see the 'loaded' dual-core being 2 degrees lower than the motherboard?

Have u got an Intel motherboard? what does TAT say?

Can't install TAT for some reason, throws an error.

I run much the same set up with a 6700 to 3.4 and 1.425v and a GTX. I think my Zalman does little. 51c idle and 67c load with a ambient temp at 20c. I have it in and out like a yo yo. In the market for a new cooler.
