H50 & i7 Temps

Recommended Posts

My Core i7 920 is OC to 3.2GHz; idle is 38 C from RealTemp 3.0.

 

My VCore is 1.14-1.15v, from CPUID Hardware Monitor and PC Probe II.

 

The temp in the room is 77 F or 25 C, according to the thermometer sitting on my desk.

Been working on this today. Called Corsair and a great tech helped me with some stuff. The results were great.

 

OC'd to 3.0GHz I was running around 57 at idle and as high as 70 under load. I wasnt very happy with that seeing others getting much better temps.

 

Air flow is one thing. So, Im working on that. And I found out even though the computer hasnt been moved that one of the retaining screws was very loose in position #2 (lower right) So, tightened that up and now at 3.5GHz Im running :

Cpu temp 56 idle on load went up to 60 and stayed there. GPU ambient says 48 ... so Im guessing thats alright.

 

Think Ill put this back down to 3.0 and see what the temps are then.

 

 

Alright took it back down to 3.0GHz and temps are cpu 52c so not a huge change..

 

okay did some work with my case fans... as I already knew I had a serious alr flow problem. So changed 3 fans around and now My temps are cpu 49 and 52 under load even better my gpu temp. dropped 8 degrees too. One more fan to change and then it should hopefully be even better.

My specs:

i7 920 OC'd to 3.2GHz

eVga X58 SLI LE

 

Room Temp: 21-25C

 

Idle temps: 20-25C

Load temps: 45-51C (Using Prime 95 blend)

 

My stock Intel HSF:

Idle temps: 45-50C

Load temps: 65-75C

 

Thodgson are you using any other after market cooling parts on your motherboard?

 

I tried the same setting with my 920 and I reached 40 C at idle and 68 C at max load.

 

Room temp in my house is around 25 C.

That's pretty dang low. :bigeyes: I don't think I could get processor to 20-25C idle if I tried more. Are you using stock paste and fan configuration?
