P3 Temps anyone???

[Valster]

Hi.... I know I am asking about outdated stuff... but I just pulled this rig out of the garbage bin....

Stock cooling... 2 case fans....P3 (5.5multiplier) I don't know what stock speed was oc'd to 826 Vcore 1.9

CPU temp 36 c idle
MB temp 27 c idle


or these within the ballpark... does anyone remember???? I haven't had a chance to burn in the rig but I have been using it to surf and some db work for the last 3 days.....
Has been on for 72 hours plus and no crashes or anything.....

Thanks for the help

sorry for the mix up bacillus

your cpu temp looks ok for a p3.
only start getting worried if your temps on full load start approaching 60C though the p3 specs quote a higher figure than that!

slot 1? coppermine? Tualatin? ouch 1.9 volts....I guess you werent kidding about where you found it.

That's fine, my p3 550 runs 42C load (with bad airflow)

That seems ok. It also depends on air temp as well. Where I used to live, in winter it was round 17deg C inside and my old P3 733 idled at round 26-32DegC give or take. In summer room temp shot to 30+degC and it idled at round 35 - 40 degC. Under load on a day 47DegC outside, 35DegC inside my system hit 51, that's the highest I've seen a P3.

Thanks for the info guys.... computer still hasn't crashed yet...

Under load for cpu temp shoots to anywhere from 50-58....

I think me best be turning the voltage back down and slowing down a wee bit....
OR

I could leave it and we could place bets to see when it craps out!!!!

Cheers

That seems ok. My Tualatin 1.3Ghz does 51C semi-loaded. That reading should be internal diode reading though. And the case has literally no airflow {g}
