Hi,
I just setup my E6300 system (All factory settings, no overclock), and its running waay too hot, and I cant seem to cool it down! When I startup and look at the temps in BIOS (or Intel Desktop Utilties), I have 41 C for my CPU temp. It takes around 5 minutes to slowly go upto to 60 C where it remains. Here's a pic of those readings.
Intel Desktop Utilities tells me my temps are:
Processor - 60 C
Motherboard Temp - 55 C
Motherboard Temp - 54 C
I/O Hub Temp - 83 C
Memory Controller Temp - 60 C
Speedfan readings are even higher, Core0 is 69 C and Core1 is 67 C!
<Coretemp crashes my system, so I cant use it>
Here's what I've tried:
Case cooling - Added 3 fans to my case, 2 exhaust (120+80mm)(top), 1 intake(120mm)(bottom).
HSF - I read that the stock HSF was tough to seat, I took everything apart and re-installed it atleast 3 different times - those pins wont go any lower into the board, I'm sure!
Any ideas what I'm doing wrong here? I'm really worried.
Thanks,
Chris D
