aaggoswami, there might be a problem with your HSF installation. go get it checked. Maybe a reapplication of thermal compound should bring things back under control.
You are reading the temps from bios right? The freeware tools for HW monitoring need not be accurate always |
Dear, my bios reads 72 deg celcius at start up and if i keep the pc in bios for 15 minutes, then the bios reads 78 or 80 deg. Celcius. The BIos is up-to-date with the help of MSI live monitor facality.
The thermal paste is just as good as it is suppossed to be. Now my father uses AMD Athlon 64 3000+ with MSI motherboard with ATI 200 chipset. It also overheats. Its manufacturing tech is 90nm. I am having 65nm. My pc is generally using Oracle or complete CS3 from Adobe.
Man it does overheat and in the Gujarat's summer, well I have two 115V ndustrial grade fan ( one 4 inch and other 80mm ) Plus one 230 V industrial grade 80mm and one 12V regular 80mm extra fans running, still its bad.
What I am writing is out of my sheer experince or rather, what I have experienced. I am having 2 AMD desktops and both of them have same problem.
Anyways dear, thank you for the care you have shown.
