E6600 What is wrong here?

I have a thermaltake armor with the 25cm fan on the side. Airflow is not an issue, the PSU is a new idea I have not heard yet... but note that my temp jumps to 40c AS SOON as I boot up, from a cold state. And yes, 35/38C with a Tuniq at stock is terrible.

E6600 What is wrong here?

Followup thread, if you saw my first one you know a bit. TEMPS MEASURED WITH: CoreTemp, TAT, Speedfan, BIOS. They all stayed around the same, comparatively. I recently got an E6600 and with stock speeds and settings it was idlingat 50c. (MULTIPLE RESEATINGS OF THE HSF OCCURED DURING...

RMA E6600

Also I see this was moved to that overclocking forum... or I posted it here on accident. should have went to cases/cooling I guess if you want to get technical.

RMA E6600

I'd also like to add, when I gammed on stock speeds with the stock HSF it was reaching mid 60s very freq and this was after maybe 45 minutes of playing. Intel's recommended do not pass number is 61 or something, so that's definitely a reason to return as well.

RMA E6600

I'm not RMAing it for poor ovreclocking. If you read what I said. my idle temps were in the 52s+ with stock everything. Unacceptable on its own merit, the fact that I bought a Tuniq 120 is IRRELEVANT to because it didn't come for free with the CPU to make it actually functional. I see me...

RMA E6600

If you remember my old thread about high idle temps with the stock heatsink, then welcome to the update! pasted from another forum I posted this ****** on: I am still within newegg's 30 day return. Backstory: I bought an E6600 and planned to use stock cooling for a mild overclock. I...

default, and I ordered a thermaltake armor and tuniq 120 so i can overclock. might as well push my components to the max while they are under warranty to see what they can handle.

E6600 CPU Temp

Why is there so much discrepancy between E6600 temps? I'm in the same boat as the OP. I'm running everything at stock speeds, using the stock HSF and I freaking idle at 51-52c in windows. I have put on AS5 twice and reseated this piece of ****** HSF at least 4-5 times before that. The...

Zalman 9500/9700, Tuniq 120 on a Lian Li PC60?

I have a Lian Li PC60 ( http://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-133-1.htm ) case and I want to replace my stock intel HSF(came with E6600) with one of these. I'm getting idle temps of 51C after many reseatings/AS5 application(done over twice) I was wondering if anyone had any first hand...

doesnt seem to go over 59/60 at load though, so there's only a 9C or so diff between idle and load, is that weird for this processor? should I just get a TUniq 120? (does it work with a Lian Li PC60? i think it does, just checking)

yeah coretemp reads 51/50. I reapplied the AS5 today and I still get virtually no change, could there be something in the bios I need to change? This is confusing as hell, I know for a fact that the thing is sitting pretty and connecting with the CPU.

idling at 52C now. this is so irritating and depressing. I've already devoted over half my weekend to doing this relatively minor upgrade, considering I'm not even overclocking. :suicide:

Well I got everything installed yesterday, CPU temp was 51C in Vista, all stock settings. So today I take the default thermal goop that comes with it off, apply AS5 which I'm very comfortable with doing, a nice thin layer on the HSF,idle temps are now 46?? I haven't put the NB fan on...
