    Q9450 - crazy temps

    yep agree, main thing is stabilty .... look at it another way ... when stress testing for say 12 hours+ what are your temps when o/cing at 3.4 and 3.6 ..... I cant get stable beyond 3.3 at the moment and my temps hit 60 for the core0 and 50 for the rest of em.... when priming for over 20 hours...

    Q9450 - crazy temps

    Stick with RealTemp ... are you on stock heatsink or watercooled? Seems a high for idle

    App for voltages?

    voltages are causing me a headache ! I have both the BIOS and the NVIDIA control panel applet as well as CPUZ all giving me different voltages for the same component e.g. CPU core. what do I trust? I am leaning toweards the BIOS but the CPUZ is showing higher - which is the real voltage ...

    help! Reliable source for voltages - BIOS?..

    help !!.... getting really confused over what source I should trust for my voltages.... got two sources - the bios and Nvidia control panel - but they show different voltages for the same component e.g. cpu core on top of that Everest and CPU-Z reports a differet voltage as well...

    Ambient temperature affect with w/cooled

    Noting the thread below ... I am interested to learn peoples experiences especially those that have an interest in ambient room temperature and its effect on cpu temps.....does ambient room temperatures have a noticable affect on a watercooled system - moreso than an air cooled system? seems a...

    What do I trust ? Temperatures all reported differently!

    Hi there I'm running a Q9450 and have loaded it up using Prime96 (64 bit version). I have also used both coretemp (v0.97.1) and realtemp (v2.41) to monitor the temperatures of my CPU. Both programmes are reporting the temps of my cores differently ?!?! 10 degrees in fact ! Which do...

    Confused by CPU speed reading Q9450

    cheers buddy .... Loaded it up with Prime95 (64bit version) and not peaking above multiplier 7 with speed of 2333 ??? My temp are 58, 52, 57, 57 core 0-3 noob on this as you can tell ... appreciate any advice of the speed and temps :)

    Confused by CPU speed reading Q9450

    Slightly confused that my CPU is supposidly a Q9450 @2.66Mhz yet CoreTemp and CPUZ as well as the Mobo system montior is reporting a speed of 2333mhz... actually CPUZ cant make up its mind over the core speed is and occassionally switches between a multiplier of x6 = 2000 mhz and x7 = 2333...
