Hi
I recently purchased Pentium D 3 Ghz. I read that theses CPUs tend to run a little hot.
Should I upgrade the stock cooling system?
Is liquid cooler worth the money?
 
Heya

It is always a good idea to buy a different cooling solution. Make sure that it si a good one though. Watercooling is one of the best solutions but it tends to be quite expensive if you are looking for good ones.

Since you bought one ... IS it hot? (i.e., what are the load temps?)
 
I just bought a HP m7170n, which is a Pentium D 3.0ghz also. Sense it came like that from the factory, would I need to worry about over heating issues? I haven't upgraded anything, its exactly how it came from the factory.

for most users stock cooling will be ok
 
what is the cpu temp? and warranty might be voided if use something else. let the computer run for a month or so to make sure everything works.
 
How do you find the CPU temp? Would I need to buy a special gauge or something? sorry if its a stupid question, I just started learning about computers.
 
use speedfan go to google and type in speedfan and then download it and it will moniter the fanspeeds and all the temperatures on your computer
