Dropped my CPU temp by 7.5C

albertj03 · 20-February-03, 12:23 AM

I dropped my CPU temp from 46C with my Volcano 7 to 38.50C with my SK-7. AS3 btw.

ungarmax · 20-February-03, 12:26 AM

nice. I kinda figured an SK-7 would outclass a Thermaltake product in every way

me_john85 · 20-February-03, 12:35 AM

cool, im geting an sk-7 soon good to know that will lower my temps that much

biohazardpc · 20-February-03, 01:07 AM

I dropped mine around 10c with an avc sunflower

I'm runnin' 18C on average at mid-power with a TT Dragon Orb 478. If I crank it all the way up, I can get down to 10C!

Not too bad for air-cooling... but the damn thing sounds like a vacuum cleaner at that point. I keep it runnin' at about 18C... just 'cause it's nice and quiet.

Thats because you live in an icebox heh

AntiM · 20-February-03, 01:33 AM

baldwooky · 20-February-03, 01:47 AM

HA HA HA!... He does live in Montana you know!

I used the fan from my Volcano 7 on the sk-7 because the cheap SVC fan makes this nasty high pitch noise. The TT fan has a heat sensor on it and before it always ran around 3500 rpms. Now with the sk-7 in there it runs at like 2900 to 3100 rpm.

Are you sure you mean 10C, DS? That seems awefully cold unless you are running a peltier.

Sk8forMaple · 20-February-03, 02:19 PM

My rig runs at 40C with a stock cooler. But i live in Connecticut and its also the middle of winter.. can't wait to see it run in the summer ( i think i'm gunna get a new fan before then.

) But my room is also what normal people would call a basement (i have a finished basement

) well.. we'll see

my 2.4A@2.8ghz (not 3.2, it was stable but i was getting windows prefetch errors on startup) runs 35c idle, 48c load using Swiftie MCX400 w/41CFM Globe Fan, and chipset with TT crystal orb runs 28c idle - 32c load, and my 9700 runs 40c idle -52c load. I think I might water cool later on, its just too expensive for me now
