Compy temperature

Postby TurkishMonky » Fri Oct 07, 2005 8:36 am

Just wondering what other CAA members have as their computer's temperature.

I have a 2.8 GHz P4 overclocked to 3.1 GHz with stock fan and 4 sleeve fans running at:
29 C for the motherboard
25 C for the CPU idling
40 C for the CPU under heavy load.

That's similar to mine, although the 68000-based Mac servers run considerably cooler. The PPC Macs run similar, somewhere around 30 C most of the time (from the 200MHz 604e to the dual 1.25GHz G4).

Althon 64 2.8GHz, no case fans, stock other fans.

35C at the moment, but none of the apps running are what I would call CPU intensive.
32C motherboard.

See, isn't Celcius a much better unit of temperature ;)?
Everywhere like such as, and MOES.

some motherboards will have temp sensors and monitoring software to view such things.

3.2ghz P4-640, Zalman 7700 pure copper CPU cooler and 1 rear exhaust fan.
CPU zone: 120F
Mobo zone: 98
case internal: 93.7

Also, like in the case of PPC daughtercards, many of the PowerPC chips have their own thermal sensors. The 604e-based server has a mo'bo' based gauge.
