 Posted: Sat Feb 22, 2003 9:19 pm Post subject: Overheating and typical CPU temperature |
 |
|
Hi,
I just built a new computer with a P4 3.06 GHz ( with stock heatsink & fan) and an Asus P4G8X deluxe MB. Since it was the first time I installed a CPU I followed careful instructions and applied some Artic SIlver III thermal compound . Also, I did not overclock the CPU at all.
The thing is when I check the CPU temperature in Sandra or Asus PC probe the CPU seems quite high wether it's idle or under full load.
Idle : 52 degrees C
Full load : 60-62 C (after 2 minutes of burn-in running twice to get 100% CPU)
Also, I have some stability problems like the sytem hanging in games, which I figure, is probably due to the temperature.
Could somebody please tell me what temperature should I be expecting and what should I do to correct the problem. Thanks |

| I dont know much about computers, but anywhere above 45C is pushing it a bit. |

Your temperatures are a little high, do you have any case fans installed?
