Well hard drives typically run around 30C, my p4 runs at 55C,and my case temp is 25C

And yeah for a pretty thorough stress test run Super PI for 32MB

temp1 is most likely your case temp. That's pretty hot...

Temp2 is your processor, don't worry about the fire. You can change when it appears. For your processor its safe until about 78C

You can just turn off temp3 as there's no sensor there

HD0 is your hard drive temp, and 53C is also quite hot. What HD do you have?

the test is done... max temps were t1- 54C t2- 65C and t3- 46C
here are the results (w\o OC)-


edit- so basicly if a 32MB test is done with no errors then its stale? what about max temp for the processor? above what temp its a bad result?

all i did was to select overclock 10%.. i didnt play with any other option (dont even know how..)

i now tried some cooling idea that i had and ran it with 20% (3.6GHz) and turbo (?) finished the Super Pi with max 62C@CPU


now i'll see if i can finish a PCMark05 test and how is next to 3.3 and 3.0.. last time @3.6 the PC got jammed..

Edit- finished the PCMark05 test, max CPU temp was 65C..

stock the result was 3151..
any ideas about the results? any tips on cooling? and how can i OC without presettings like i use now of 5,10,20,30 %... ? thanks!

any tip on cooling.. i want good cooling for my pc.. and all the once that i liked cost shit load of money.. is fan cooling any good? or must i go to like water cooling etc..
