Lets see how well my server fairs in this HEAT

[Kiska]

Well, as the title says, let see how well my server can keep its temps down. Background: I live in Glenfield, NSW
And right now the outdoor temp is 37C/98F, with indoors temp being 31C/88F.
Here is my server running for about 30 mins.....

😵 90C on RAM?! Well...... Damn thats hot

Do these DIMMs receive some forced airflow?

In fact they do! They are in front of the 2 server fans

Why is one proc 15 degrees hotter at max than the other is another question.

At least with my 3 dual socket motherboard, one cpu fan's exhaust blows into the others intake.

Most likely due to the heatsinks being basically inline, but slightly offset, I would imagine. The heatsink in the back gets hot air. Doh, Mark beat me by seconds.....

Here is the diagram of the server that this machine was running on. I have since shut it down, cause it overheats and it does a forced shutdown to not destroy my components: https://www.hpe.com/h20195/v2/GetPDF.aspx/c04284194.pdf

1U server, + no dedicated air conditioned computer room@65F = TOO MUCH HEAT !

You could take all the components out of the box, and put into regular motherboards with huge air coolers and it would fix that. 🙂
