What's your cpu temp for Athlon XP 2000+?
What's your average cpu temperature for Athlon XP 2000+ when it's not
overclocked? I get up to 57c when the cpu is fully loaded. |

However, what I've told you is as meaningless as your report, without supporting information. My room temp is 24C. My case temp is 27C. I achieve these temperatures using an Antec SOHO full tower case w/Antec 400W PSU (large and designed for good airflow) with one 80mm intake fan (40CFM) and two 80mm exhaust fans (30CFM each). My HSF is the Vantec AeroFlow (quiet, effective *and* reasonably priced). Basically, I spent a bit more for quality components so temperatures would not be an issue. So, tell us the whole story if you want meaningful assessments of your cooling situation. |

Stays around 40C here. A bit under idling, a bit over under heavy load.
Sounds like you don't have a rear case fan, or a lame cpu cooler. Using the Thermal Integration TI-V77-L, with the fan reduced from 5000 to 2700 by a Zalman Fanmate, though I'd probably get a Vantec Aeroflow - it's quieter and wouldn't need the Fanmate. The heatsinks are the same design. The Vantec gets the same temps as I'm getting at 2700. Be sure to use something like Arctic Alumina ($5) and read the instructions on their website. At 5000 rpm it was in the low 30's. -- Ed Light Smiley :-/ MS Smiley :-\ |

I have the standard AMD heatsink with a better non-standard fan on it and my XP2000+ gets about the same as yours at a room temp of about 24degC... I almost burned it some months ago when the fan blade got caught up with a stray wire and saw temps wayyyy off the end of the Asus Probe monitor program (Asus Probe goes to 100degC)... That was after about 5 minutes waiting for it to cool down enough to register again so god only knows what roasting hot temps it actually reached... All of a sudden 50 & 60+ degC means nothing to me.... Not even going to try to cool it down a bit... I give the insides of the PC a good cleanout with vacuum cleaner (Carefully does it) about every 3 months and give the heatsink and fan a good cleanout of dust. This is a good policy.... My PC goes 18hrs a day, 7 days a week, 52 weeks... blah blah blah... It collects dust like a strong magnet in a pile of iron filings.... |
