Or just check online periodically. Can't be that much of a hardship?

That wastes precious energy my friend, the more you are on PC the more un-green the world becomes... So you have to turn it on, do your stuff at the speed of light and quickly pull the power chord from the socket to insure quick "green" shut down of the PC :eek:

Thats the only option at this moment.

Makes one wonder why big and respectable companies i.e. Gigabite & Kingston dont have newsletter with latest firmwares announced.

Yes I suppose it would be convenient but ultimately your hardware will continue to operate adequately...

Everyone has the opportunity to do their socially responsible green bit. Even if its drinking organic beer or using components from environmentally friendly manufacturers such as Kingston.

Does anyone know how to OC my 7850 gfx card so that it stays as is and does not go back to defaults after each reset please? ta

arekgreenman888 · 22 Jul 2012 at 17:14

Can someone please explain to me what Package temp is and why they are so high? This is under load.

The package is the socket its self

How are those two sentences in the same post???????

Why don't you do your green bit and not overclock it :confused:

MSI afterburner is what you need by the way for your power gobbling, earths resources chewing, shipped from the far east on a massively polluting boat, behemoth of a card. Set your overclock then click the thing that says 'apply overclock at startup'.

Socket means motherboard or where exactly is the 5 th sensor? Also which sensor is responsible for motherboard temp please?

The temp sensor for the socket is normally in the centre or bottom right of the morherboard where the CPU sits. To answer the other question depends on your motherboard most only have the 1 but they will be listed in the manual, ps this pc still isn't very green...,i've seen greener spacecraft

How many motherboards have CPUs in the bottom right? :s

arekgreenman888 · 26 Jul 2012 at 13:49

I shall safely assume that the 5th reading is for motherboard. Gets kind of hot with temps close to 60 C. May be I need to take off that cooler on the motherboard and replay some new paste?

lol, You realise that in taking your "green" Pc and overclocking it, You're essentially negating the...Green. Your PSU is going to draw more under stress.

Blue160 · 7 Aug 2012 at 19:27

That has been pointed out to him many times. I can't decide if he's a troll or a muppet.

Coolermaster HAF X Nvidia Edition.

Green enough for you?
