792001 2009-07-16 08:12:00 Just what I was thinking....mid-high 30s is very nice for a 3.2GHz quad at load. Are you sure those are not idle?? qazwsxokmijn (102)
792002 2009-07-16 11:18:00 Yup - I'm with you guys. I only have my Q6600 @ 3 Ghz - and with the Xiggy it idles high 20's low 30's depending on ambient (good case cooling as well). If I push it with Prime95 on all cores - it gets to low-mid 50's.

I'm trancoding a video while I'm posting this and all 4 cores are pumping. Temps are 40-45 ish.

OPs 30's under load doesn't seem possible with a V8 :eek:

792004 2009-07-16 22:33:00 Not a bad idea qazwsxokmijn, directly vent the coldair from outside into your pc... Tuneznz (13203)

792006 2009-07-23 05:04:00 this has gone a bit off topic lolz ill check the bios next time, testing cpu at 3.42ghz =P Openingfuel (14473)
792007 2009-07-23 05:19:00 Yes it says 19 C in the bios at 3.42ghz, this might be because of the motherboards powersaving ability, changing the 9x multiplyer to a 6x or 7x Openingfuel (14473)
792008 2009-07-23 07:02:00 It still seem to low, my e6600 is idles around room temp at 3.6ghz with watercooling hueybot3000 (3646)
792009 2009-07-23 07:35:00 Still not possible....even at 2.4GHz it's hard to believe it does mid 30s on load. qazwsxokmijn (102)
