Vista - Intel E8400 Temp problem

i cleaned my pc througly. See now. Improved right

That is an improvement It seems to have fixed your sensors too as it no longer displays the temps as a minus.

Is your room generally warm as well? As ambient room temperature will always affect a PC's temp.

Yes bro my room is warm. If I turn on Air condition, i feel very cold. So i keep it off. I'll add more fans and better cpu cooling

My objective to to decrease temp to 45~50c.

Yeah, they are some crazy temps for idle...

Did you double check the cooler is attached properly?

Did you use thermal paste?

Yes I removed the cooler and then reinstalled. There was some thermal paste on the sink and also on the processor. I used brush to clean the dust as it was covering the whole processor (except its center).

Wait... you removed the cooler, brushed it and then put the cooler back without adding new paste? If so, there's your answer

Each time you remove the cooler you really should clean the existing paste off and then re-apply a fresh lot. Especially if there is a chance that there is now dust in the paste.

Hmmm i'll do it today. for sure...

Hi,

I noticed that your clock speed is just 1.99Ghz and the multiplier is 6. In the case of E8400 your cpu is underrated. out of the box the E8400 should be rated at around 2.4-2.8Ghz and with a multiplier 9. the temp problem of your E8400 is not caused by poor cooling system and even if you dont add any additonal fan the temp shouldnt be as high as it indicates but you need to take a look on the correct BIOS settings and check if you have the latest drivers. now, if you have all these correct settings and drivers the problem is with your E8400. your cpu is not located in the mohabi desert to have this kind of temperature you're "deep frying" your cpu actually. check if it is still under warranty.

hmm it is still under warrenty. Should I claim warrenty?
