Socket 478 3.0GHz

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:01 AM

i've had this for a while, its on a foxconn mobo, my concern is that it runs very hot, should the fans be pointed out or only the front pointed in or what...?
i've tried both and couldn't make up my mind

newmodder · Dec 25, 2006, 12:10 AM

front fan in, back fan out, cpu fan towards the cpu...what are your temps?

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:12 AM

idk, but i cant touch the heatsink, its too hot

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:12 AM

is there a program that will tell me my temps outside the BIOS

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:32 AM

um i went into the BIOS and my CPU is running upward of 90C wtf, it shouldnt be that high right

stevorob · Dec 25, 2006, 12:41 AM

I wouldn't think a sempy would run at 90C. That seems pretty hot for an AMD chip.

Nevermind, you're talking about a p4? I was looking at your system specs.

Not sure what the temperature ceiling is on a p4, but that still seems really hot regardless of what chip it is...

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:43 AM

no its a p4, AMD doesnt come ina socket 478.....

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 12:43 AM

i think its a prescott....i might need a new heatsink.......

Artic freezer 4 will solve your problem.

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 01:14 AM

well just opened it and the cpu heatsink was CRAMMED with dust........ cleaned it....now running around 70C.....DUST MAKES A DIFFERENCE!!!

newmodder · Dec 25, 2006, 03:21 AM

If your in Deg*C then it is still running hot i would remove your Heaksink clean and reinstall or replace with a zalman or well known cooler..or hey if you can try your p4 in another mobo

DR.Death · Dec 25, 2006, 11:32 AM

ya that chip should run around 40 to 45c with the stock cooler

OOTay · Dec 25, 2006, 11:46 AM

i would think it would top out at 90c and give you some stability issues. i happen to own a socket 478 3.0ghz p4 myself and they get pretty hot sometimes and ive never seen one get that hot before.

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 04:02 PM

i have like 3 heatsinks, but ive lost the clips to them, so they are USELESS!!!!

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 04:12 PM

i've oc'd to 3.49GHz and yet to chekc the temps, but i presume that they will be around 90C where they were before

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 04:48 PM

Ive just checked the temps of the CPU and they didnt change when ive OC'd it, they are still around 67C

stupidbiznitch9 · Dec 25, 2006, 07:55 PM

isn't this kind of wierd.....?
