Not that it would bother me much, i just dont think it will benefit you, to overadvertise you in such a bold way!

just my 2 cents

its just sarcasm in my siggy

im from mechanical LOL

oh, okay! Self-Sarcasm is indeed very sympathic! Just thought you meant that serious!

hey guys, question about my overclock.

i overclocked my Phenom II to 3.60 Stock voltage and my load temps (tested using Prime95) are 57-58, is this a good temp range?

JrRacinFan · Jul 25, 2011, 03:11 AM

Something is wrong there. Try reseating your HSF.

No doubt! I was thinking the same thing.

The fan is plugged in hey?

YautjaLord · Jul 25, 2011, 09:07 AM

Removing unnecessary stuff from my HDD plus thinking to move (eventually) to Win7 but only cause IE10 (according to this bloated M$ marketing strategy that they drop Vista out of support, corporate monopolistic f***s, lol) doesn't support Vista 32- & 64-bit at all!!!!!! Why i'm saying this? Cause it's time to upgrade some parts to OC my current 965BE on those: if i'll post my Phenom II 965BE OC on Sabertooth 990FX & Indigo Extreme, you won't mind if i'll remove SpeedFan & other progs like it leaving only CPU-Z & post the OC while Thermal Radar, TurboV EVO, DIGI+ VRM & afforementioned CPU-Z running? Don't worry - LinX, SuperPi 1.5XS & other progs like that will stay. Thanx, need to know cause end of August nears & i'll have enough cash to buy those parts by then. See you all on daily basis & with slightly improved 965BE OC by end of August.

I need 1.375v to get 2600mhz stable on the cpu/nb is that okay?

both fans are plugged in, i reseated my cooler now and i still get the same temps... maybe its the TIM that came w/ the cooler?

That's fine. You can go up to 1.45v 24.7 although i suggest the lower the better.

@PotatoCat

There is definitely something wrong, what are your ambient temps? Can't be the stock TIM. Did you apply it with this method?

KieranD · Jul 25, 2011, 03:51 PM

I read some people getting much lower volts than 1.375v i guess it just depends then

My rule of thumb:
for 2.6Ghz
C2 = 1.5v max (have an unlockable 720)
C3 = 1.45v max(same case: unlockable 555)
Those are just my own personal "touch and feel" experiences.

If you can't obtain 2.6 then there is something wrong with the chip's IMC, that mainly pertains to an unlocked Deneb. I know native quads would be a smidgen different but essentially the same. Remember though, cooling is key if giving the IMC a shit-ton of volts. MAKE SURE you get no more than 55C load or you will suffer degradation.

not really, i applied a small dab on the CPU then i used a credit card to put little bits of TIM on the gaps between the nickel plate and the heat pipe. my ambient temps are about 33-34.

i have mine at 2500, 1.25V

and my board has >55C on the motherboard sensor. even while stock. should i worry?

You are just one if the cases of pretty good IMC. Dont worry at all.

apparently i never goofed up. however when running intel's burn-in test. it said my system was unstable!

Then it's unstable.

Your mobo temp sensor is probablly stuck, nothing to worry about.

brandonwh64 · Jul 25, 2011, 06:07 PM

My experience on the DHT coolers is that you need to apply paste to the CPU and a very thin layer to the bottom of the heatsink to fill the gaps along the copper and aluminum surfaces.

That's pretty much what I do. I spread a thin layer on the CPU and rub TIM into the bottom of the DHT cooler to fill in the gaps.

Then I rebuke my statement; you will need a touch more volts.

Don't know why. This is the method I've always done and never had a problem. I doubt that the application of TIM was/is the source of the temp problem. You really need to screw up the application to make your temps way off.

do you think its the TIM itself or maybe too much/too little TIM?? the Xigmatek Gaia came with a pretty cheap looking white TIM
