Hi,
I recently got E6600 with Asus Striker Extreme motherboard and Scythe Ninja heatsink. I've been reading the forums and I think my temperatures are rather high for idle values.
In Windows XP, IDLE the temperatures are: Tjunction 85C and Cores 52C/53C, measured with Core Temp v0.95. Intel's TAT does not work for some reason (Error Enumerating On Demand Clock Modulation support -error). Asus PC Probe II and Ai Booster show the temperature 47C for CPU.
I currently run the CPU at 1.400V core (from BIOS) and 350 MHz FSB, so 3150 MHz cpu. At any lower core voltage the CPU will not boot to Windows, it crashes at the spash screen or after that. I just actually noticed that 1.400 voltage is not enough for ORTHOS' Small FFTs - stress CPU to run for long without errors. With BIOS' automatic volatege setting for CPU core ORTHOS was stabile.
Do you think that the temps are high for normal IDLE use? Do you think that raising the voltage even higher or using automatic setting in BIOS is good solution for these FSB settings?
Thanks!
