CPU temperature
I have just built a system with a MSI k7n2g ilsr mainboard with an XP 2600+.
CPU temperature shows between 55C and 59C. Is this normal? The cpu was boxed and uses the standard amd cooler and fan. Thanks in advance. Rob |

CPU temperature
I have an MSI KT4V running an AMD XP 2500 and that is what my temperatures
are when running high intensive graphics. MSI provides you with a temperature monitoring software which I recommend you install and run. The threshold for this software monitor is 75C, so you should be fine provided you have enough air circulation within the casing. regards B "Robert Creasey" wrote in message ...

CPU temperature
I think your CPU has a max operating temp of 85C, so you're well short of
that. A better cooler and lower ambient heat in the case (ie, more and better fans) might bring cpu temp down a few degrees, but you're probably okay. Another thing would be to consider a better thermal compound than the included silicone paste (Artic Silver, etc.), it can also make a few degrees difference. "Robert Creasey" wrote in message ...

CPU temperature
Hi all,
It seems that these AMD's run very hot. I have an oversized cpu fan and an extra intake fan on the front and that took my system temp down to about 30C from 40C and cpu temp down to 52 from 67. It seems that the important thing is lots of crossflow ventilation so you have to make sure that the front fan pulls the air in and the back fan blows it back out of the case for maximum efficiency.

CPU temperature
Thanks for the information, I believe the maximum operation temperature in
85C so I am well below that level. Today the temperature of the cpu hovers between 53 and 56 so I will keep my fingers crossed that this is OK. I have no problems with the computer operating at these temperatures but it just seemed to me to be a little on the high side.

CPU temperature
have you upgraded to the newest bios.. it fixes the temp readings to correct
that problem ... i have the same board and after a bios flash they are now back down to where they should be.. "Robert Creasey" wrote in message ...

CPU temperature
where they should be?
I guess all of my other motherboards were wrong too then..and alot of people's. it puts them into the low 30's.. I have a hard time swallowing an AMD with stock cooling being anywhere near that..sorry, I think their "fix" just screwed the accuracy..
