My Pentium D 820 operates at about 40° C when idle, 50-60° at normal usage and 72-75° when stressed (CPU Burn-in or S&M). The CPU is not overclocked (i.e. operating at 2,8 Ghz). Is this normal or is there something wrong?
Key hardware:
- CPU: Pentium D 820 2,8 Ghz @ 2.8 Ghz (not inbox)
- Cooler: Gigabyte 3D Rocket-Pro PCU22-VG @ 3400 RPM
- MB: Asus P5LD2
It is also worth mentioning that ambient temperature is high (Spain), ranging from 25° to 40° C. MB temperature is usually around 45° C.
I have tried changing the CPU fan speed. When low, the CPU throttles (observed with ThrottleWatch).
Any opinions or suggestions are welcome.
Regards,
Mag
