My stock E6600 is running at 42C idle/55-57C load, and 36C idle/50C load for the individual cores (according to TAT). I have an Artic Freezer 7 Pro heatsink and a Velocity Micro computer, if that helps.
Are these temps too hot? ![]() The temp in my room is about 74F (23C), are these still hot for the ambient temps? Last edited by Nate911; 07-01-2007 at 04:36 PM. |

The load temps are high, pretty high... I would consider getting some new thermal compound, something like Arctic Silver 5.
I have the Arctic Freezer 7 and my E6300 @ stock runs at 32c.

Cool, I'll try that too. Does the Artic Freezer 7 Pro provide adaquate cooling for the CPU? Also, if I get the compound the temps will be lowered to a reasonable level, even to overclock?
Unfortunately I don't have a fan right now, but just opening up the case drops the temps to around 50C. Last edited by Nate911; 06-30-2007 at 01:35 AM. |

Nate911, Download a program called Intel TAT, it has much more accurate readings!
