It's an issue with incorrect T-Junction reporting. 85 vs 100C gives you the 15C difference. Core Temp 0.95 gets it right though. What are you doing to load the cores? Your temps sound more like idle temps, unless you're blowing ice cold air directly at the HSF. :)
I'm currently running Vista x64 and must say I'm enjoying it. In all honesty for core intensive processes, I think Vista x64 outperforms XP x64. Mainly, I believe this is due to better core management in Vista over XP. In XP an application that was not designed for multi-core (aka, more than...
Update - hour averages:
Core 0 - 57.82790331
Core 1 - 57.82475039
Core 2 - 57.24829217
Core 3 - 57.24487651
Ambient temp seems to have dropped to 24.6 in the room, but the core temps barely wavered over the hour.
No, originally tested with blend. Forgot that I was supposed to run small fft.
For the hell of it, I just bumped up to 3.0Ghz (9*333) @ 1.2375V to see what happened. Vdroop is coming in at 1.176V in CPU-Z. For some reason CPU-Z is reporting 2Ghz (333x6) and Coretemp is reporting 3Ghz...
I'm having troubles getting your second image to load (the load temps one). I just built a similar setup this weekend, just with a 680i and a P182 case. Same heatsink and fan. My idle temps are pretty much the same as yours, ~44C on two cores, ~40C on the other two at idle. Load was pumping...
I just finished building a new system with a P182SE this weekend. Got the SE when it was on sale for $150 at CompUSA, lower than the regular P182 at the time. Powered by an Antec TPQ-850, whose cables have more than enough reach for an EVGA 680i A1. CPU cooling is TR-120X, which fits with...
Ah, I guess I should have mentioned motherboard options. I was looking at the EVGA 680i or another board based off the 680i reference. Not sure if I have the patience to wait for the X38 to come out.
Thanks for the info so far, Raider.
I picked up a P182SE when CompUSA had them on sale (cheaper than the regular 182, and...well...SHINY!) and now I'm picking out which PSU is gonna power my system. The front runners are:
- Enermax Infiniti 720W
- Corsair 620HX
I'm leaning towards the Enermax, just to be sure I have enough...
Thanks, I wasn't sure that the 620HX would provide enough juice for two GTX cards. I saw the Enermax reviewed as well, looks sexy. I've had good results with Enermax before, but jonnyGURUs comments about the short cables worry me. I'm putting this in a P182.
@jedi True, I've seen the...
Hi everybody,
I've been reading the forums and you all post some great info in here. Definitely helped a ton in catching up since the last build I did 4 years ago.
I'm looking for some confirmation on a power supply for the following rig:
Q6600 (plan to OC)
EVGA 8800GTX
4GB RAM...
