dead system?

Kesava · 03-08-2008, 04:24 AM

well my cpu is still not right i dont think.

sometimes when i start up it is really loud. usually running at like 80-100% full speed.

sometimes when i start its silent. like i cant hear anything at all. but if i look in the case it is spinning.

this time it started silent and then went to full and its staying there.

its like its using smartfan but something is definately wrong.

when i go to india, in a month or so, im gonna try and get an E8200. but yeah. until then, i need to figure this out

When you tossed the cpu on the older board did you inspect the insides in case everything needs a good cleaning? The loud startup is likely from the different bios now seeing the cpu fan, if the same one, now speeding up more then seen on the board that just went. Just keep a good eye on the temps if possible.

something is wrong with the temp sensors. even in the bios they are like 21 haha. for a pentium d with stock cooling and stuff. i will re-apply TP when i get the chance.

but also, i dont have any case fans. which is a problem. cos the 120mm ones i usually use are in my good case. and dont fit in this one.

Ouch! That will be hot to touch! Nothing bests the sensors for reliability. That will render any 3rd party program useless as well as the shutdown temp if manually set.

Cooling the board as much as possible will help. To keep everything from cooking again you will probably need to leave the side cover off and point a fan inside if possible.

Kesava · 03-08-2008, 08:12 AM

i could have an extra side fan.... help the cpu. will that do it?

by the way i ment 21*C which isnt the correct temp.

PC eye · 03-08-2008, 08:17 AM

Keeping the internal temps down for the board as well as other hardwares will greatly help in seeing the cpu temps kept as low as you can get them there. Anything you can do like adding a side fan instead of removing the side cover in order to get as much air flow going will be a plus there.

Kesava · 03-08-2008, 08:32 AM

ok so i now have the cpu HSF and side fan to cool the cpu. i reckon the actual temp is probably around about 40*C.

other then that theres nothing in the way of intake/exhaust fans...

i might put one in tomorrow if i can find one.

basically im just hoping to have this last for about a month and a half. by then i should have got an E8200 and hopefully a replacement P31 mobo in about 2-3 weeks

With a fresh application of thermal paste the cpu will generally run warmer since you now have to allow for the breakin period too. You'll probably find that the cpu temp will be closer to 50C for the next few days with a more accurate reading until base of the compound or paster used starts to see a good bond take place. Just the same go easy with it until you can get into something better.

ha ha.

You'll get the RMA replacement. It could take awhile, though.

Kesava · 03-09-2008, 09:46 PM

the guy i called up said 2 weeks... plus about a week for it to get to them.. i didnt send it via express post.
