Prescott Temps on Water Cooling

[Jonsey]

I've just finished watercooling my prescott, and it seems to run too hot, considering what I have. I have 3.4E overclocked to 4 GHz. I'm running 1.55v actual (1.5 under load). This is on an Abit AS8. According to the AbitEQ, it runs around 45-50c at idle, and 60-65c under 100% load (dual prime95). I know the IS7 and IC7 mobos temp sensor was about 10 degrees off, but I don't know if that's true with the 775 socket boards. Even if it is 10 degrees high, doesn't 55c under load seem high?
I'm running 1/2 ID tubing and Dangen Den 12v pump (Laing D4). The water block is a TDX, and I have a Maze 4 for my radeon. The heatercore is the 77 b-ville with two 120 mm fans. I've reseated the block, without much luck.

What kinds of temps are others getting with these prescotts?

seems a little high

My 2.8e Prescott on Socket478 with a CoolerMaster Hyper 6 (Air Cooling, albeit good aircooling)

doesnt go higher than 50c under load, and this type of presscott is supposed to be 5-10c higher that the S775 Platform

building a similar watercooling setup currently so im very curiuos to see what other responses you get

Yep, I was in those ranges with my fishtank/Maze4 setup (www.dammitall.com). 50 degrees under load. But the motherboard went up to 80 in no time (I think I was running 1.6 volts)

PWM gets very hot on pressys(thats those little black chips around your socket) so thats probably why your motherboard was reading 80c

 

[eva2000]

probably typical Abit temp sensor over reporting temps ? or could be bad contact or mount of the waterblock ?

i just set up my 3.4E 550 SL7J8 Q433A423 cpu with DFI 875P-T with G4 Storm/MCP650/Thermochill 120.3 with 30C room temp

Yeah I am also very interested, since I will be building my rig with the Prescott P4 560 3.60GHz LGA 775, 800MHz FSB, 1MB L2 Cache as well with water cooling, but I will be getting my WCing gear from S-n-T systems.

That is a little high for watercooling. I, too, have a prescott 3.4 @ 4.0ghz. Vcore is at 1.375v though. Idle is usually around 48C and load is usually around 60C. I use a Thermalright XP-120 with an Eneramx 120mm fan.
