avg temps for P4 Prescotts?

[fire400]

I'm running a 2.8e under an Artic Cooler and Artic Silver 5, and the avg is like 50c

that doesn't look very attractive...

50C/122F is not serious yet, although my rigs runs at 104F/40C average under AMD HSF.

Room Temp: 24C

30C ambient, 38C idle, 56C full load.

Prescott 478 3.0E with stock cooler/TIM.

I have never been about 40 with mine. I use the stock cooler. My case is quite well-designed, though.

I've got a D 820 which idles at close to 60C and loads at 72C on the retail HSF with an open case. I'll update once my Zalman 7000 arrives. I'm not expecting much of an improvement though, and even a big improvement still = sh!tty temps.

Time to break out the pyrometer.

I can recomend the thermaltake jungle 512, it kept my 830 out of throttling range. 72c is throttling point at stocks speeds, so you may be throttling.

Sounds like you have something else going on also

My 820 idles in the high 20's low 30's and full load is around 55

Thats with a ninja with a 120 on it

I think that explains it right there..the ninja with a 120 is still one of the best heatsinks, the stock intel on the other hand sucks..I got the same temps with the stock intel heatsink..

Also, open-case is still not really what you want. You want some actual airflow through the CPU area so the HSF isn't just twirling the same air through itself over and over. 120mm exhaust fan, stat!

Unfourtunetly I don't have a stock one to try it out with

But also as stated without good air flow through the case it won't make much of a difference what heatsink is on there

my socket 478 2.8ghz prescott idles around 45C with zalman 7000cu cooler and AS5.

With the 7000AlCu, I was getting up to mid 50's @3.3ghz, couldn't finish a Prime95 run at 3.9 since it got up to 60c+. 9500 took care of that.

what are your temps now with the 9500?

Pentium 4 660 (3.6GHz 2MB) o/c to 4.33 GHz with 1.475VCORE. 45C idle 59C load. Arctic Pro heat pipe cooler with fan on full speed. (still very quiet). That's not bad is it? It will NOT throttle as long as the fan is running at full speed. Turn the fan down and the temp gets into the upper 60's and it will start throttling according to a program called throttle watch.
