CPU cooler
texasboy:
I just installed an Artic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro unto my Pentium 4 extreme socket 775. Why?? Because it was cheap £10.68 ($19).It runs very quiet in default.
If some of you more technically minded folks could take a look at the following figures and tell me if all is ok.
Temps
cpu-31
sys 22
pvm-40
CPU fan1020rpm 1.24v-1.35v
ext clock standard 200mhz v-core 1.3875v
pciex 100mhz ddrv 1.80v
3d clock
Default core settings485mhz
Default mem settings 1300mhz
Can adjust both of these to 510 and 1435 or more and still very stable. Only small fluctations in temp 2-3c.
These figures are well within safe margins on NIVIDEA Gainward 6800 GS GLH 512MB PCIEX cards.
Any thoughts?
cheers

That's quite good temperatures for a Pentium 4, always used to be a struggle to keep their temps down, but you can get some pretty good and quiet fans these days :)

I'm amazed at these new fans. I can't tell if my computer is on or not unless I sit right next to the case!

Thanks Quantum, I had forgotten that when I read these temps that I was already running the higher core and mem settings, Though to be fair I have other fans inside case plus the ones on the cards. Very quiet as Night WatchMan mentioned. I did find that the Artic Cooler was much larger than anticipated and had to cut part of the tunnel plastic guide from the extreme edition cpu fan to make room. Is it better to keep Nividea settings on default for fan, as I have several choices of-normal,quiet, user settings 1,2,3.and turbo??
cheers

Well higher setting don't often increase the temperature that much unless you are doing something with it, you can't really judge what kind of impact higher settings have on the temperature until you compare them under the conditions of a strong benchmark program.
