Summer temps

[dokko]

Anyone noticing any difference?

Knocked my fan the other day and thought it might need a remount and repaste but just done it and its only knocked a few c off some rather high temps.

For the 1st time my computer beeped at me today after hitting a temp of 60c on my CPU.

Currently on a E6600 @ 3.2, and its never been past 42c in its life. (well, thats what i think since i've njot really monitored it apart from when i set it up at xmas)

My idle temps seem to be around 5 degrees higher than normal due to the weather. Peak temps hitting around 65. No problem though. It's always peaked at 60 degrees or so in a 21 degree ambient room.

My system's setup for quiet operation, so its fans are pretty much running at a crawl , and they are probably covered in 2 years worth of dust.

If your beeping at 60 your warning temps are too low, reset to 70 degrees, np for an E6600

Yeah i put it there for when i originally did my 1st over clock, i thought i'd have it on 60c just incase something was wrong and it didn't rocket past, sort of a failsafe of a failsafe!

Think i will whack it to 70c if it does it goes off again.

Just reset of the fan has seen 5-8c knocked off top temps, so that's now keeping it under 60c.

I don't know what the weather is like in Newcastle but it's crap here in Leeds. When I got up it was 19.5c in my room, that's like February temperatures. I hate living in Britain sometimes.

Its really warm here, has been for a while.

Its not great sunshine weather, but its stuffy and close.

Just had double glazing put in as well, very very hot in here.
