Temps too hot?!

Hello, everyone!
I just finished buidling my first computer. It has a 2.8 Northwood, and a Zalman flower heatsink CNPS7000A-Cu with Artic Silver 5 Thermal grease. From what I have heard people saying there usual temps are with this setup, I feel that mine are too high (?). I have a Wavemaster case with two 80mm sucking in and one 80mm blowing out, and the cpu fan does about 2800rpm max. After gaming for a few hours temps were about 49 for the cpu and high 30 for the case. right now it is idling about 35 in the case and 45 on the cpu. the ambiet temp is 68 F.  The strangest thing happened after i let it sit a whole night off. In the morning when i tunrned it on, i checked the temperatures immediately in the bios. and the cpu was still 45C!, which is about 110F, 40F warmer than the room! I have the newest version of the bios, and i followed the artic silver and zlaman instructions exactly. is it possible i have damaged one or both of these sensors? I really appreciate any input or suggestions you have, and post questions is i need to clarify anything, i'm new  
Notes: I was the most concerned with mounting the heat sink. I put the right amount of grease on, but it did squirm around slightly as i tightened it. Also, The copper fins never seem to warm up...  
newegg reviews including claimed cpu and case temps
Thanks again!

Bejon2000,
On the Bios ver 3.20 and below the error reading is in -12 v but the temp looks fine, but in ver 3.5 corection has been made on -12v reading and the temp seems the same nothing change.
Bios 3.6 the cpu temp is much lower then the previous bios, this can be read on Speed fan and also in CPUZ the Vcore doesn't change in reading compare with the old bios.
Interesting to note bios 3.5 and below CC will read the lowest CPU  temp in my computer is 49 c although the other software read lower. (it seems stuck on the lowest reading CPU temp). In bios 3.6 the CPU temp read lower and the CPU temp reading is change quickly (abruptly) which I thing not supposed to be in the heat transfer.(The bad thing is happen on speed fan also).
Yes you right about new Mobo is started with Bios 3.30 and not found in the web site, you can see the history of this mobo bios on the zip file of Bios ver.3.6.
Regarding the CPU temp. is better to put a real sensor on your cpu which can be read on the front panel so you can get some reference of this matter in relationship with the software reading. It not expensive and you can get it with casing which have this equipment.
The great thing about this Bios is actually on the DOT performance.
Hope this will help you.

    I live in Hawaii by the ocean, but it's not that hot here.  I monitored these temperatures at 4PM during a windy, cloudy day.  My temps don't go below 50C on idle unless it's early in the morning, say 4-6AM when I'm doing papers before school.

    Hi "dalnap"
    Now I presume you are using the stock intel cooler that came with the P4.
    Those temps are too high and I would definately not run your processor at load until we fix it just incase.  
    Now wot u need to do it reseat your heatsink on your processor.  
    This means you will have to take off the heatsink and clean it with any heatsink cleaner or isoproppyl alcohol till the old thermal pad or paste is removed
    Then put a little bit of thermal paste in between the heatsink and the processor (about the size of a grain of rice) and put the heatsink back on top of the processor.
    So if you havent got any you will need to buy some thermal paste, Artic Silver III is meant to be good but if you use that it voids your intel warrenty so buy any other descent thermalpaste.  
    For reference if you are using stock your CPU temps should be about:
    Idle 40C
    Load 60C (max)
    Hopefully this helps otherwise there are many other experienced users that will help you!  
    Good Luck

  • CPU temp too hot on macMini(mid2011)

    CPU temp up to 82°C, fan blowing hard after half an hour use , even with few apps on.
    Know this issue?
    Thanks for helping

    This is a known issue, discussed in many places. I find having my mini stand up on its side lowers the temperature considerably.
    If I were you, I would have the cpu monitor on to see what app is using the cpu so much. Usually my mini runs cool except when rendering 3d scenes or compiling program code. Even well implemented games like Portal 2 or Trine don't cause much heat.
    But the mini does run hotter than you would like, can't help that really

  • Another "my temp is too hot" thread

    I've done a lot of searching (both google and here) and I believe that I'm running too hot, but since this is my first experience with OCing I want to make sure so I'm posting here.
    Anyway, I made a sig with all the info needed (I think), but I'm running at 2.3Ghz with an idle temp of about 49-51C and even with a medium amount of stress it gets up to 58C. From looking around this seems to be too hot. My guess is the thermal paste I used is crappy - no name crap from a local store. But that would only take it down about  5C, or so I've been told.
    My fans: One on the base as an intake at 2300RPM, HSF at 3200, and 2500 for the outake located just below the power supply.
    I'm running the cpu at 2.0Ghz with an idle temp of 38C, but that is with the case on its side with the panel off; whereas I was running at 2.3 upright under my desk.
    Hmmm... what else. Room temp is low, it is well air conditioned.
    I think that is all, fire away if you need more detail to help.
    thanks
    p.s. link to a review of my HS http://www.ocworkbench.com/2004/scythe/samurai/p1.htm

    I mounted a coolermaster aero 7 (suggested by coolg... thank you man) and works fine
    idle temp is about 38 and full load is 43-46. and i used to reach about 60 before with my xp 2800+ barton.
    anyway i think that a 2500+ not oc and in normal room temperature conditions (shall we say about 20°C) shouldnt be too hot, even with the boxed amd fan+heatsink.
    first check if the cpu cooling is well installed.
    i've also found (personal experience) that little details may change a lot of things: case fan position, a "tidy" and well ventilated case, round cables...
    take care

  • HT2101 Anyone else get the "iPod too hot" message, even when the device and ambient temp are both cool?

    My iPod Touch 4 repeatedly gets the iPod too hot message, even when the device and ambient temp are both cool.  Shuts itself off.  Ugh! 
    Is this a warranty issue or is there a fix?

  • Does the iMac G5 get too hot?

    Greetings to all.
    I would like to start a thread about the iMac G5 and heat. I found a few old threads, but I would like to bring that topic up again.
    I have a 1st Generation iMac G5 (purchased end November 2004). For the second time since November 2004, it was defective and the Logicboard was replaced (so my Apple Dealer told me).
    First time, in November 2005, the screen went pink. Second time, earlier this month, my Mac didn't boot anymore.
    The full amount for the repair (including shipping to Apple (Belgium), work hours, etc.) was over 500.00 euro (about 700 USD for you, Americans).
    I believe that the iMac G5 (at least: my 1st Gen one) is simply getting too warm.
    The day before, I installed "Hardware Monitor". It gave the following (average) temperatures:
    CPU: 60.6 - 63.8° Celsius (141-164° F)
    HD: 57.5° C (135.5° F)
    It is my opinion that the (my) iMac is getting too hot to be "healthy". I have 2 PC's, in which I installed extra fans (at the back and at the side). One of these, with an Athlon64 3000+ (1.8 GHz) and a 120 Gb Seagate Barracuda gives (average) temperatures for the:
    CPU: 36.5° C (97.5° F)
    HD: 26° C (78.5° F)
    My second PC, an old (modded) HP Vectra, with an Intel P4 at 1.6 GHz and a 80 Gb Seagate Barracuda, gives as average temperature (HD only):
    HD: 37° C (98° F)
    It may not be correct to compare my iMac with PC's - but harddisks are harddisks, wheather it is a Western Digital (250 HD in my Mac) or a Seagate (PC HD's), and it is only logical that a(n average) HD temperature of 57 degrees Celsius (128° F) in the long term can not be healthy, while the harddisks of my PC's are a lot, lot cooler.
    The PPC, too, gets much hotter than my Athlon CPU (and the P4 most likely too).
    Therefor: is my suspicion correct that the/my iMac G5 in general is getting too hot for its own good? Even though it may be summer here (Belgium), I still find such a difference in heat values between my iMac and my PC's not "right".
    Both the times that my iMac was defective, the Logicboard was replaced.
    Is it possible that in both cases heat is the problem (directly or indirectly) of the defects of my iMac?
    Basically we have a desktop computer constructed like a laptop, with all the hardware stuffed together in a very tight space. Why did they not keep the heat issue more in mind, when the iMac G5 was designed?
    I believe that the heat is a very negative factor in the/my iMac G5. If I will have to pay such a small fortune, every time my Mac breaks down, being a Mac owner will become quite expensive.

    Your Mac should have been repaired under the Apple power supply or video and power issues as long as your serial numbers were covered.
    As far as normal operating temps are concerned, my Rev A is at this moment, running at CPU T-Diode 144∘and my Hard Drive is at 128∘so your temperatures seem well within normal ranges.
    Yes, the machines tend to run a bit hot, but as long as the ambient temperature is not too high, they are fine. The failures were originally cause by a bad batch of capacitors but since those have mostly been replaced, the machines are much more reliable.
    Some people train a small fan on the back of the computer to keep it cool, that may help you.

  • Droid Razr - too hot to touch

    Having several issues with my Droid RAZR, purchased in June 2012.  Current Android Version 4.1.2, Build Nbr 9.8.20-72....
    Main issues are:
    Battery life - stays plugged in all day & takes about an hour to go from 100% battery to about 65% battery.  It's under 50% at 2 hours after being unplugged & is around 20% within 3 hrs.
    Overheating is a problem.  When not in use (and simply in a shirt pocket) it gets to the point of being uncomfortably hot.  Temp in a battery app is between 42-45 C.  If I use it for streaming audio, it gets too hot to hold.  Heat is also up during any phone activity at all.
    Drops in & out of 4G/3G constantly & is much more apt to drop that coverage down to 1x than ever before. 
    Also notice that the GPS flashes in & out more often recently than before. 
    Not sure exactly when the update to JellyBean was rolled out to me, but I have had more of these issues in the last 90 days than I did prior to that.  I know that within the last 30 days other Verizon users with Droids have told me about abnormal power consumption on virtually all apps on their phone. 
    Using Advanced Task Killer v1.9.7 & have it set to autokill = crazy and interval = when screen off.  Apps set to ignore are Gmail, a Craigslist app, Weather and Calendar. Everything else I have set to kill.  Even with those apps, it is still warm to the touch. 
    Nothing I've done thus far has seemed to help curb the unusual power consumption on my Razr.  I've cleared the cache on it several times, and it seems to have curbed the constant heat issue, but not the spikes in temperature that went unnoticed before. 
    I don't want to do a factory reset on it if I can avoid it, but would if it were the only resort. 
    Any ideas what else to try? 

    To answer your questions:
    1. First thing Get rid of the Task Killer that can for sure cause the Heating as the ( Task Killer ) is constantly fight the Apps,
    It is now uninstalled.  I had installed it when I noticed that the Android OS was using a disproportionate amount of the system resources (over 50%).
    2. try running the phone in Safe Mode you could have some apps causing the issue as well
    I will give this a try.  Most apps I notice take 3% or under of power consumption.  The big ones are screen (30 second timeout), Android OS (as of now, they are about 70% of the power consumption) and Wi-Fi (at home).  Android System takes only slightly more than the most heavy power consuming app.
    Outside of the task killer, I had only installed updates to apps over the last month or so.  I just booted it into Safe Mode & it got noticeably hot in the center after about 5 minutes. 
    3. And have you done a System Cache Clear in say the last couple of Months if not i would definitely try that
    Yes, several times in the last week or so (Power off, then Vol + and Vol - and Power ), select Recovery,then select wipe cache partition & then reboot).
    4. with a follow up of a Factory Reset
    I had wanted to avoid doing that unless as an absolute last resort, since I have so many pictures, files, and other things saved on the phone. 
    and your last question:
    5. And one other thing i like to ask are you using the Charger that came with the phone or Charging it Via a Computer if by computer Switch to the charger that came with it in the Box..
    Yes (at home).  In the vehicle, I am using a charger I purchased from Verizon when I got this phone.  At work, I use an AC Charger that was also purchased from Verizon. 
    Thanks for the help.  I will let you know if Safe Mode makes any difference.

  • My PB runbs always too hot: it burn my lap. & battery runs only 1 hour.

    Hi.
    As the subject, my PB runs too hot.
    I found sombody asked the same question and downloaded software to measure temprature.
    Battery: 35 C
    Power Supply Bottomside: 55.8
    Processor Bottomside: 62.5
    Processor/Controller Bottomside: 64
    SmartDisk Fujitsu .... 48
    Trackpad: 40
    I'm not running any games. don't know why so hot.
    And my battery last shorter than before: I was surprised it lasted only 1 hour or so last time I used without AC.
    Anybody any suggestion?

    Hi Shiho,
    It sounds like your Powerbook is stuck in turbo mode Have a look at the energy saver tab in System Preferences. Make sure that the performance settings are set to automatic. This will make sure that your processor scales to your performance needs and isn't at 100% the entire time. Doing so would cause it to heat up significantly and as a result drain the battery much faster.
    Additionally, make sure that there is sufficient air flow at the bottom of the powerbook. If necessary, prop the back up by placing a book under it, or have a look at purchasing a Grffin iCurve or iLap to elevate the laptop. The other temperatures you posted are normal and within spec, and the processor temps look normal for one which is under a bit of a load.
    Good luck!

  • Mac Mini i5 2.3 too hot?

    Hi Everyone,
    I've been reading information about the temperatures people are seeing from the Mac Mini i5 2.5 and i7.
    I've recently purchased an i5 2.3 Mac Mini this month. I'm concerned that this is too hot. I'm not really using anything intensive. Mainly browsing, icloud services, Facetime, MSN, Skype.
    Using iStat 3.18, I get the folloiwng figures:
    Airport Card     53 degrees C
    Ambient          60
    Ambient 2       56
    CPU 1            94
    CPU A            88
    CPU Promixmity   79
    Mem Bank A1      62
    Mem Module A1   60
    Mem Module B4   50
    Power Supply       54
    That looks very hot. I don't particularly hear the fan but I can see the rpm is 2183rpm.
    In fact - here is a piccy from the Photo Stream.

    Hi, yes this is a Lion machine. I think that is my main concern as well.
    The machine ran very hot and no fans kicked in which either means that my temperature monitoring software was incorrect or the Mac stood for awhile cooking without the fans kicking in. I fear it is the latter.
    I understand about cooling (being one of the unlucky ones who had a broken liquid cooled quad 2.5 Power Mac) and only installed the Mac Mini temperature monitor when I became concerned that the mac was running way to hot. During the days I've owned the mini, this was majorly different. I also have a quad core Intel Mac Pro in the same room to compare it to.
    Then I saw the temps and felt the heat from the back vent. I knew this wasn't normal. It was running at this heat without anything open or any underlying system operations running in the background.
    I've decided to phone Apple. I'll see how the Mac Mini fairs but I don't like the thought of it cooking at 94C for so long.

  • Using a 7200 RPM hard drive- too hot?

    A question about hard drives and heat. I've read using a 7200 RPM HD in a fanless slot load iMac may be too hot. What has been people's experiences with this? Does anyone have suggestions of cooler running drives? I have a 60 GB 7200 RPM IBM Deskstar that was original equipment in the Digital Audio I had that I'd like to try in my iMac to replace the original 4400 RPM 20 GB drive.
    Also, has anyone added any fans to the inside case of their slot loader?

    Hey Steve,
    Here's a discussion from:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6805878&#6805878
    ">Other forums say that "modern" 7200rpm drives do not get dangerously hot. How modern is 2002?
    Well if it were me and wanting to save everything I could I would go ahead. When this came up before I suggested putting a wrapped copper heat sink around the drive. I would at least put a thermal pad between the drive and the mass store cage to maximize heat transfer. (this is what's done in the eMac) If you did that you'd probably want to do the same thing between the cage and the divider panel.
    I would then monitor the drive temp and if I felt it was too high I would go to a wrapped heat sink.
    still too high - mini fan scab power off the 12 V supply to the drive.
    When this was brought up before I read a study that said that there was no correlation in drive temps and failure rates."
    Also, has anyone added any fans to the inside case of their slot loader?
    I did this. Mounted a 12V squirrel cage fan in my son's iMac 500. It was just below the upper vents. I scabbed power off the 12V from the hard drive.
    It worked in there for about two years but I noticed it was kind of noisy even tho' that's the quietest type of fan.
    Later I thought you could mount a more conventional type directly over the back of the HD mounting cage.
    However in all these iMacs the most common point of failure is in the upper part of the iMac. ( The PAV board ) Most often this is due to heat buildup and involves the high voltage capacitors and flyback transformer. That was actually why I mounted that fan in the upper section.

  • Mac Mini Mid 2010 Too Hot after 10.7 Lion

    I never measured the temp on the mini using 10.6, because it never got hot to the touch.
    Now with Lion it is very hot to the touch (the top cover), so I decided to install a temp monitor and these are the readings:
    CPU: 58 - 60c
    CPU Heatsink: 56c
    Airport Card: 48c
    Ambient: 37c
    HD Bay: 40c
    Mem Bank A1: 56c
    Mem Controller: 48c
    North Bridge 50c
    I leave this mac mini always on, and I am afraid the temp is too hot. Using 10.6 I never needed to worry about temp, it never got hot (well it did at first with the screen saver, but once I turned it off it worked fine).
    Are these readings normal?
    Thanks in advanced.

    I can't even type on my mac, 'cause keyboard is too hot!
    I don't understand, you are kidding, right?
    At least for me this is a real problem. Even when the computer is not processing anything it gets hot. I have to place an external fan to cool it down. I didn't have this problem when the same computer was running SL.
    Thanks anyway for the reply.

  • When is it too hot for your mac pro?

    I recently switched graphics cards from the x1900 ATI to their new HD 3870 because of heating issues. While the new card is not having problems my Mac did freeze when the internal temp from my SMC control read 97 degrees. At what point is hot too hot and is there some way to cool the temp besides increasing fan speed (which didnt seem to do the trick anyway)?

    At that temperature for a sustained period of time over time will lead to your thermal paste on the CPU to fail. Actually, alot of the thermal paste sitting on the board will fail eventually but at high temps for sustained periods of time can't be great. And if you've ever seen iFixit's breakdown of the macbook pro, there are gobs and gobs of thermal paste all over the dang thing.... I say use away and make sure you get apple care !! hehe because if any of the problems you get are related to hardware it can always be fixed.... or swapped
    But 100 C is not that hot for a CPU or GPU... in fact it's borderline warm. Most CPUs I have run up 140-165 and operate around that temperature... I think your safe for the most part. Just backup your stuff onto an external occasionaly, and if worse comes to worse make sure you have apple care and bring her on in.... I'm curious to hear what other's say about the operating temperatures. If you look in your manual Apple says normal operating temp is like 50 - 65 or something and they say 105 C should be your max....

  • X100e too hot, shuts down

    Over the last month or so, and in 4 different occasions, my X100e (AMD Athlon Neo MV-40, 3GB RAM) has gotten too hot, to the point that it has shut down by itself. I didn't get any notification that it was an emergency, temp related shutdown, but I assume so because the bottom of the unit was extremely hot.
    One of those occasions I was transferring video to my Zune player, 2 other occasions I was downloading music and 1 just listening to music while browsing the web.
    Does that seem normal? I ran some tests with the Thinkvantage Toolbox and it said the temperature reached 86 c degrees... and it didn't feel as hot as those other times.
    I've been a Thinkpad owner for over 10 years and I've never had this kind of trouble. I'm not sure if this is normal for this model, or I got a defective unit.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    Sorry for my bad English by the way.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Hello,
    Just to check, do you have the latest BIOS firmware installed for your X100e?
    You should be able to download it from this page on Lenovo's support web site.

  • What is too hot?

    what is too HOT for my MB. I have SMC fanc control and I use this to tell what temp my MB is at. My MB reached 155 F. today w/o any programs running except SMC. I have searched these forums and I haven't found a clear awnser to this. thanx for the help.

    There is really no clear answer, only normal ranges that people experience without problems.
    Just judging by my own experience, I would say that 135-140 F would be a normal operating temperature- It is at that range that the MacBook normally hovers without reving up the fans.
    Under load, the computer may get up to 170-185, but at that point the fans are going full throttle to bring the temp back down around the 130s.
    I wouldn't worry too much about 155, but if you are constantly at that temp, you may want to check to see if there isn't some other process running in the background that is causing the CPU to heat up.

  • How how is too hot for Core i7 3770?

    For my Z77A-GD65 system build.  Using HWMonitor to observe temps across each core an on the package.
    At what point is "hot", "too hot".
    With no overclocking, with my stock intel fan, I'm at 40C at idle.  When Prime95 or any stress app is run, it gets into the 75-80C range.  When does it get to be "too hot" where I should consider better cooling and heatsink solutions?

    By current Intel documentation calculations, it is 89C for a 3rd gen 77W CPU. Normally, I don't give answers that can be found by doing some self research, but currently as listed, TjMax is 105C. For years, heat has been an enemy to pc components, but in all fairness, the production quality and temperature tolerance has greatly improved beginning with 5 series chipsets, recent memory chips, and VGA's. Along with heat, voltages applied can also have a dramatic impact on longevity. That is why it is important to 'know the limits'! Components are built with limits by the manufacturer, unless proven otherwise and documented, a CPU at 70C will not suffer degradation any less than a CPU running at 88C (3rd Gen CPU). If the temperatures and voltages are within the manufacturers specifications, there is no need to fret about them.
    Getting rid of that factory TIM on that stock CPU cooler and using a proper amount of AS5 or MX-2 might reduce that temperature by up to 10C.
