Sandy Bridge temps

[phillyman36]

Anyone know the thermal range on these cpus (2600k)?. I haven't had much time to do anything but at stock I'm around 45c on my 2600k.

My 2600 non k is at 30 idle and 42 load on a warm day not sure about the thermal range but its stated on intel & cpuworlds webpage as
Maximum operating temperature (°C) 72.6

2500K @ 4.5GHz, 1.33V
Idle: 26C (yes, I love my new Hyper 212+) (room temperature is 20C for reference)
Load: 55C (IntelBurnTest, basically the highest possible load temps)

I'll throw a curveball out.

2600K
I'm getting 67c at idle and 84c with some activity (probably not load). I think my thermal paste is no good. I'll check temps with the new paste I got tonight.

93C is the TJMAX i believe

If your HSF is decent, yes I would suspect thermal paste (or atrociously bad ventilation). I used a 3 year old tube of MX-2, which apparently still works like new. Yes, that stuff can last (just not the crappy [usually] white stuff).

wow thats allot, so the intel website is wrong?

would it be possible to get the 2500k @ 4.0 GHz at a nice temp using the stock cooler?

I dont like your chances unless you have 4x 120mm fans all around your CPU

my i7 2600 on the stock coolers goes up too 70c at 4.1Ghz ( load ) that thing really is a POS

Just so you know when the CPU idles at 1600Mhz the temp is at 30c so you can see how much of a change 4.1ghz makes


Running at 3.4ghz will bring the load temp to 42c to 55c

nice temp! Hyper 212+ is excellent but if some put a prolim mega on it I'd bet won't even break 50. this chip is just very easy to cool, a major improvement from intel's past offerings.

i7 2600 @ 3.9Ghz with HT (Prime95 & LinX) = 52C
i7 2600 @ 4.0Ghz without HT (Prime95 & LinX) = 48C

Cooler is the Zalman CNPS9500A. vCore is at 1.175.

Already have problems reaching the EPS power connector on my MB (my case is a bottom-mounting PSU model), don't think such a ginormous heatsink will help. I'm happy for now ... lol.

you probably installed the hsf wrong because noone else has this problem

My stock i7-2600k with a TRUE 120 heatsink in push/pull configuration is getting 56C at full load; ambient temperature is 19C. I haven't tried overclocking it yet, but it seems kind of high to me.

 

[Castiel]

Mine's idling around 26C at stock clocks at 1.2v. Going to start playing with it soon

 

[Arkainium]

What are you folks using to check sensors? For me, Core Temp reads 56C per core while the ASUS utility reads 45C for the CPU (with no distinction between individual cores).

 

[Castiel]

Real Temp for me
