Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been here but I've been really busy with school and such.
I finally broke down and decided to splurg on a new computer, here's what I got: -Asus P5B Delux Wifi Ed. -Pentium Core 2 Duo 2.4 E6600 OCed to 2.8 -Zalman copper CPU fan -ATI Radeon X1900XTX -New NEC 19inch with 900:1 Brightness -1GBx2 DDR2 800 Ram OCed to 2volts. -120gb hdd (sata) -Rosewill 550w PS I have a question. I feel like my cpu is running really hot, especially with the zalman. underload it gets to about 55c, and i'm using arctic silver 5 and this fan. my voltage is set to auto at 1.36v. I don't know why it's running so hot. i'm thinking the fan may be defective. any ideas? thanks. |
