Conroe E6300 Stock temperatures?

Just curious, I'm running at like 49 degrees idle, 54 on load...

Seems high to me, my AMD proc ran much cooler on the stock HSF but of course, it was only a 3200+ :)

Much obliged for any insight!

are you on stock cooler?

Yes, I am... will be looking to upgrade soon I guess :)

Any ideas for a good cooler (one where I don't have to rip my motherboard out, preferably!)
 
Just wait til you start OCing high FSB - these things get friggin' HOT!

well, i just read a post about someone having idle temps of 50C with stock cooler (may have been oc i forgot) but then put on a scythe ninja hs and dropped it to 30C..


its the hs i bought for my build as well.
 
@ 2.8 GHz (400x7), 32 C idle, 48 C load. Scythe Mine cooler.

To the OP: 49 C idle is definitely way too hot.

I also have a TT Big Typhoon. Abit uGuru is reporting around 34C right now and my FSB at stock is 272MHz. Temps will vary somewhat from motherboard to motherboard. Some report low while others high. I don't know what speed you have your TT Bg Typhoon running on. I'm still messing around with this Abit software but i think mine is running at under 1400 rpm.

I'm thinking about getting a new 120 mm fan for my BT. The fan that comes with it doesnt seem to be very strong. How does this one look ?

Dammit! My temps jumped!

I had my build out of case (6300/DS3/Scythe Ninja) and I was on 30-39idle. So then I put everything in the case, close it up, look in easy tune and voila! 54 C idle. :mad:
 
Damn, I thought these things ran cool? I'll be running next chip passive...maybe I should just go with an AM2 X2 3800. :eek:
 
E6300, 39c, 50% load at 2.558 GHz with Hyper48. The case is closed 80mm in 120 out and a 40mm on the NB.
 
Yeah, it seems that once you pass 450FSB you get about a 10C spike from the few cases that I've seen.
 
Wow, these are much hotter then I was expecting. I think I'll hold off now, those temps are just to high for me to be comfortable with in a silent rig.
 
doesn't Conroe use the new digital thermal sensors that are both more accurate, and much smaller (allowing them to be placed closer to hot spots on the core)?
I'm betting conroe isn't running hotter than AMD or Penitum D, we're just getting more accurate temps from it.


(Intel's datasheet (pdf) shows thermal protection starts at 90C, danger temps.. ehh who knows).

And yet everyone says water isn't needed. :rolleyes:

My E6600 runs at 50c idle and 65 underload.
Cooler is this one and I run the fan at 5v (about 800rpm)http://www.thecoolingshop.com/product_info.php?products_id=2167

Ok I think I should revisit this and mention that I changed my CPU cooler the other day to the Zalman 9500. While removing the dominator I noticed that only about 50% of the base was actually in contact with the CPU. This should explain my rather high temps, now with the Zalman cooler I idle at 42 and get 51 under load (zalman still at 5v)

I might go back and lap the IHS of the cpu and see if that helps even more.

I got a touch under that, but with 12V on the Zalman. That was on an E6300 @ 3150, stock Vcore. I'm working a 6400 now...
 
Anyone running one of those giant coolers such as the Scythe Infinity? I wonder how well those things will cool these conroes.
 
According to Gigabyte's Easy Tune 5 software my e6300 is running at round 25-27c on idle and low 30's on load with the TT big Typhoon.
 
Those are very good temperatures. I'm hoping to upgrade later with an E6400 with some big heatsink.
