how to raise cpu shut down temp. - Page 2

jeffy777 · April 6th, 2005, 08:08 AM

I would run a mem test too just to know for sure that your RAM isn't crapping out. Even new ram can go bad quicker than you may think. It could having nothing to do with your system temperature.

Are you sure your cpu is going above 60C? You should d/l a program that monitors cpu temp and keeps a record of it. That way, if your computer crashes again, you can check to see what your temps were right before it crashed.

yeah i have that something home edtion and i see my cpu after it crashs at like 57 58 so i can assume it shuts at 60

how do i test my memoery

TechZ · April 6th, 2005, 01:39 PM

air-con

OCing will do that to you, get some better case fans (more than one), thermal paste, a good HSF.

wowwwwww to much technical talk there didnt get n e of that lol.

how do i test my memory?

http://www.memtest86.com/ <-- download from there and run it overnight.

jasonchiu · April 6th, 2005, 03:38 PM

overnight? takes that long?!?!

Jason you should really not be playing around with overclocking if you do not know these basic, basic things. I think you're getting in a little over your head here.

It does take awhile, so let it go when you don't want to do anything else cause you won't be able to.

I checked the temps of my computer just for comparison:
Cold boot, CPU is at about 28C
After playing a game such as LFS / NFS PU : CPU is at about 35C.
Highest I've seen it is about 40C I think.
I have a P4 1.8, not overclocked.

Yeah those numbers sound similar to my AMD XP 2800+ (non overclocked) with my extra cooling in my case.

no a freezer.

hokie, AMD keeps that cool, I thought AMD used to be alot hotter, I had a Duron 1Ghz ages ago and I was hitting 60degrees constantly

jasonchiu · April 7th, 2005, 12:27 PM

right now i am downloading like a fucker. my cpu is 47 degrees harddrives are 30,38,39 the 30 one has 3 fans cooling it, the other 2 have 1 medium sized one.

my mobo is 36. right now its at 1.82 ghz, if its overclocked everything is bout 2-3 degees higher

overclocking was easy thoguh, i went ot bios and changed the processor speed, thats all

TechZ · April 7th, 2005, 03:00 PM

but OCing the CPU affects more than cpu speed jason, also downloading doesnt really need cpu power. And I doubt LFS needs that much power either. Get a better vga card, and keep your cpu alive longer.

andyhui01 · April 7th, 2005, 03:16 PM

the best way to max out your CPU is to do Video encoding, it just keeps it running at 100%, or you could try Folding@home images/smilies/wink.gif
