I dont believe what Ive just read on another forum...
Guy with the same issues as us, heat. Check out what he wrote!
btw guys , I HAVE SOLVED MY PROBLEM AFTER COUNTLESS DAYS OF TRYING AND TRYING...
I am so happy right , that I'll have to post back again to talk about this...
I removed the retaining clips from the motherboard !!
Simple right !
I took photos and tried to view the retaining clips from different angles all along and it still seemed like the Processor was higher then the retaining clips..
Yeah , the mb retaining clips were'nt out right flat or straight from it's corners..
But it did have an effect on making my temps horribly out of order..
after removing the retaining clips , I realised it was really simple and wasn't damaging to the retainers in any way , I can now swap it back in easily if I want..
BUT I cant say this enough , I tried placing blades to see if the retainer wasn't the cause of the problem..
Non of that helped catching the problem , till I actully tried taking the retainer clips out..
my temps although the AC's on , are @ 39 now thats like a 11C decrease !
With my processor OC'ed @ 3.4Ghz !
I still have to check my temps with the AC off..
Please if you think your having problems with your temps make sure you test this out there's no harm in trying this out , it's perfectly safe..
BTW , I did lapped my processor/QX and the cooler /CM Eclipse , my temps didn't or couldn't go below 51c idle with the retainers on.
Im using the VX Typhoon atm , although I haven't lapped the Typhoon , so there's even more hope for me now..
I simply took the retainers off , tried the typhoon again on my Lapped Processor..
Temps @ 39 with the AC on through..
So with the AC off there could be a 5c increase , thats still 10 to 15C cooler then 55-60 !!
YES , BY RETAINERS I MEAN THE CLIP ON THE MOTHERBOARD THAT HOLDS THE PROCESSOR
I've just emailed him to see exactly what he means by the retainers, and I've asked to see his photos. If it what I think it is, the metal bit that holds the processor down, I might give this a try...
