I have my intel stock cooler but want to make it so that it runs at full speed all the time. Can anyone help me. I dont have the money to get a better HSF right now. I have my e6300 at 3.2 with stock cooling at stock voltages. :p Help!
 
If you post what your mobo is, then somebody here would surely tell you, because I think there should be an option in the BIOS for that, at least in my DS3 got one, now I don't remember what it is called.
 
i have the s3 gigabyte board. it has the same bios options as the ds3.
 
Go into pchealth, turn fan control or whatever it is to disabled, near the bottom somewhere.
 
plug it directly to your PSU, just get a molex to 3 pin connector, or if your like me, I have a switch that I plug all my fans/pumps into. I can adjust their speed, I just keep em all on high. Can't hear the 120mms, or the pump on high.
 
Simple, plug stock cooler into SYS_FAN, then go into bios... there is a setting somewhere callled something like FAN Control... you set it to disabled.

The fan will run full speed all the time.... I did this @ the same OC for some time, but my temps were a little high (58 w/TAT).

Now that I've switched from Stock to Arctic Cooler though, I've been hitting 48 Load temps...

Hope that helps, I also have the S3.
 
Holy crap the stock cooler is loud as hell at full speed, id go nuts listening to that all day :)
 
i am not sure about that, some intel coolers have the automatic temp/speed control built right in to the fan electronics, so it might still slow it down.

ghetto solution if that is whats happening:

remove Intel fan/shroud and other rubbish
get a bigger fan for cheap or scrounge one.
zip tie, duct tape or otherwise ghetto it to the heat sink
profit
 
Now I'm not using stock cooler, but what I did was set the fan speed control method to disable.

Now if the stock cooler got thermal probe independently, then you have to replace stock fan. You should get bigger fan like 12cm since it's more silent.
or i think you could just modify the fan connector leaving the power cable only.
