e7200 Problems?

Just got my new e7200 to replace my e6400 in the sig. I immediately flashed my bios to the newest version on my ip35-e and oc'd the e7200 to 3.8 on the first boot ... lol. Vcore is 1.25 and it is rock solid so far. Only problem is the temps are REALLY high. Coretemp is reporting 70c full load which does not seem correct because the hsf is not even warm (reseated it two times). Is my mobo reading the temps incorrectly?

I think you're supposed to go with Realtemp with the 45nm cpus. It will report temps about 10 degrees cooler because of a different TJMax calculation, and no, I'm not talking about low prices for polyester pants. 🙂
 
At 3.8, seems about right. You should test at lower oc to see what the temps are @ load, and work up to justify where you stand. My e7200 ( with a Tuniq ) is @ 3.6 and full load temps are at 59c - 61c. A bit high as room temps are warm today. No AC on just windows open and a large fan to circulate the air.

Core temp and real temp ( latest versions ) report a tjmax of 100c so no differance, just preferance.🙂
 
Ok, thanks for the replies. After 12 hours of Orthos, I am going to lower the vcore and see if that helps a little.

The good news is that I am at 9.5*400 @ 1.21 volts stable so far!

Wow, you've got there a beast. That is one of the good E7200s, hitting 4 ghz with 1.3 V. Get another cooler and clock the sucker sky high. 🙂
 
So wait, Coretemp and Realtemp are the same now in terms of the temp reporting of the 45nm cpus? When did this happen? Interesting. . .

It happened when Intel released the official T junction values. Both programs are using now the same numbers for T junction, so they report the same.

Gotcha. I guess I missed that bit of news. 🙂
 
Well at 1.21v it has been orthos/prime stable for 12 hours. Now time to drop it down to 1.2v!!!!

Edit- 1.9v in the bios failed after 1 1/2 hours with orthos. 1.2v it is!

Orhos is crap for testing stability. Use OCCT 2 hours test, or if you are brave enough use Linpack, but you'll surely touch 80 C with that. 😉
 
Already did OCCT 2 hour test at 1.21v so will have to try that at 1.2v. Right now I am still running orthos

Orthos isn't crap....It's just that it's been replaced with better and more intense stress-testing programs out there. Some might not want to run Linpack or OCCT you know.

Back to OP. Err.....do you have adequate AS5? Cus I noticed before having not enough AS5 can cause the temps to go up by as much as 10C.

If there are better testing programs out there, then it means that Orthos is crap. I don't understand why would "some" not wanting to stress test using OCCT or Linpack, if they are better. Do you really enjoy doing 24+ hours of Orthos to see if your cpu is stable?
