Temperature recommendation athlon Xp 2000+ Slk 800

Post by jajajamet » Mon Dec 30, 2002 4:55 pm

Hi everybody,

My athlon 2000+ is most of the time at 53/54° with Slk 800 and fan Silentblocker S2 running at 7volts. Is that a correct temperature ? Can i switch my fan to 5volts ang go for 60° ? My mobo T° is never more then 34/35°.

Thanks in advance for your advise :D

According to AMD you can, but I would say if it is stable then the temperture is OK.

AMD states the maximum die tempertures for Athlon XP CPU's are 85 or 90 Degrees Celcius but I doubt anywhere near this temperture would be stable.

i would say 60 degrees is pushing the temps a little high

I had *no* stability issues when I had my XP1700+ under a Arctic Cooling Super Silent Pro within a really small case (PSU mounted right over the CPU Cooler) and the one time I checked the temperatures I got:

Idle, case OPEN: 58°C
full load, case open: 68°C
full load for 6hours, case clased: 76°C

I never had any stability issues, nor has the CPU failed (yet ;)) or something.

Now I have an SLK 800 with a 8412N/2GLM Papst fan within a standard ATX tower, temps are around 49°/51° and I'll definitely do something like upgrade my CPU or get a slower fan, cause to me any temp around 60° feels perfectly good which means I have some resources left.

Oh yeah I forgot: These temps are from a board with a thermal sensor under the cpu - so it does not read the die temp right off the athlon xp, so don't directly compare my results with yours, but thats why I gave my current readings as well.

I have an 800 with a 80mm vantec stealth...

At 5v it runs at 46c with 26 ambient from thermal diode
At 12v it runs at 31c with 26 ambient from thermal diode

thin arctic silver 3 thermal compound.
