CPU temps have gone up, need suggestions

Fucking A BIOS says 70-71*C!! Case temp is 29*

Do you have an infrared thermometer you can check that thermistor?

are you sure you don't have a bad thermistor?

What's temp showing in the BIOS?

Check the temps w/Coretemp

That's what I was using. The HeavyLoad app sucks. Suggestions on another program?

The weird thing is I run a stress test and the temp doesnt go up; stuck at 65*C. I used an app called HeavyLoad.

Damn, maybe I should get one of those sealed water cooling units. Mine is typically in the high 30's-mid 40's just browsing the web and whatnot.

They're surprisingly effective, I've built several systems w/them and have yet to be disappointed.

Your load is at 29c? That system was -10 at idle and load at 10c, and that was 2 very hot gpus, mch, and ram. I thought you ran just water cooling?

That PC has a gts450 and gtx260 core 216, OC'd and loaded 100% as well. I'm using the Corsair H80i.

psh, tec water chiller:



That's an old computer of course.

Apples/oranges, besides, that's a dual core w/no indication of load, whereas mine is an 8 core and @100% load. It idles in the low double/high single digits and the cooler isn't even on its highest setting.

You could try these from Microcenter and have them price match Newegg.

No I can see the fan; its spinning around 1800 RPM. Couldn't get it to spin any faster though...
