Alarm?...temps ok?

[SantaAna]

I was gaming with coretemp and speedfan running in the background and an alarm from my case went off. I minimized the game and checked my temps...they were in the 40s. I went through and checked the BIOS for alarm settings, and it appears ok. I have run Orthos for an hour (not overnight) but my OC is relatively conservative at 3Mhz.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

40s are great. My Big Typhoon runs @ 55c when Folding 24/7 in a 72F('ish) room When cooler, it dips to 50c. Are you running abit EQ? Check that the settings regarding alerts are at what you want them to be (i.e. the high-voltage alarm for RAM defaults to 2.0V I believe). If not running that software, check that your BIOS abit EQ (in PC Health Status) alarms are where you want them to be.

False Alarm?

I fixed it like this.

I overclocked it some more: 3.2 now.

Weird thing is, it is running cooler. Shouldnt it run hotter if I up the Bus?

Turn off all temp and rpm monitoring. Only enable CPU monitoring with shut down temp @ 80C.
