I have an oldish desk top which l treat like my old 4 wheel rides, it actually works great, except my latest CPU change has upped the temp by 10 degrees in all cores. The PC has a Boistar G41D3+ board with 8GB RAM, the old CPU was an Intel Q9400/95w, this kept good temperatures after a lot of fan experimenting, core temps were in the 30/40's rarely in the 50's
I replaced the CPU with a Xeon E5450/80w, everything else is the same, but now the temps are 10 degrees higher on all cores, so I am a bit baffled as to the CPU using less wattage but running a lot hotter.
Some info pointing me in the right direction would be great.
PS. The desk top case is a large Coolman from tsunami, it has 3 x 140cc fans at the front pulling air out and 2x140cc fans on the top pulling air out, a tsunami cooling tower with 2x 140cc fans clamped to it drawing air in through the top of the back panel. The NUBWO 550w power supply has it's own 120cc fan blowing air out of the lower back panel. The air coming out of the case feels cool......😪
