Xeon 3430 Overheating?
Mar 3, 2012
my cpu is reaching 80 degrees in the hardware monitoring page of the bios at which point the temp lights up red and ive been shutting it off incase it burns out ive cleaned all dust from the intel stock hsf the fan on the hsf is spinning round at a normal speed as far as i can see i have securely fitted the hsf onto the mboard mounts there is no thermal paste on the cpu or the hsf if i get some good quality paste and reapply it could someone give me their thoughts on whether this will resolve the issue?
im also keen to find out the average running temp of the cpu during idle in the bios ive been running this pc without paste or any overheating issues for approx 6 months without any problems i know that isnt recommended i just forgot to buy it at the time and was keen to test everything then my son was literally born the day after so i havent had my mind straight since or i would of got some paste!

I sometimes buy batches of used computers from companies to resell, and today someone called me and offered a deal.He was offering some servers using the 5000-series chipset (vague, I don't know the full specifics atm), that supports two processors.The processors installed atm are two Intel Xeon E5345.Now, I looked at benchmarks about them and they are around half of most of the top ten CPUs apiece.I doubt the score doubles if there are two processors of the same kind, but I really hope it does.Also, assuming it has a PCIe 16x (the 5000X chipsets do, don't know if this is X or not), will games run well on a rig like this if I slap a good card on it? Or the fact there are two different processors prevents games from using the second's processing power, or somesuch? (like it was for older games designed for single cores when running on dual cores)In the past all servers I found were too damn crappy to do anything else than what they were designed to do (sit in a server rack and do something boring 24/7), so I have little experience in re-purposing them.

It's been a while since I've been on here but I have a bit of an issue.It might be noting but I'd like to get it checked out.I used one of those "driver update" programs that scan your hardware and then gives you back your out of date drivers.Since updating an Intel driver I've now got an "Xeon E3-1200/2nd Generation Intel(R) Core(TM) Processor Family PCI Express Root Port - 0101" listed which I don't think was there before.

I've been comparing the specs on the following processors and as a non-gamer the Xeon processors look very attractive. What I like is that Intel offers the choice of a Xeon 80 watt non-graphics processor versus it's 95 watt on-board graphics processor. It would have been nice if Intel offered that same choice in it's Core line. Many users prefer a PCI graphics card and don't use the on-chip graphics, so why not a choice, like with the Xeon line?

my i7 idles around 40's? it has always been like this CPU: 43 Core 0 42 Core:1 41 Core 2: 42 core 3 41 ( my aux is 128 ) but people have told me speed fan gives a false reading for that considering its been stuck at just 128 and nothing on my mobo is that hot... also considering that is above boiling temp.. anyways my point i'm getting to is that when i run rsbot ( runescape bot ) my cpu usage hit 100% and when i move my mouse everything starts to slow up exteremly terrible almost at the point where i can control anything and my cpu temp gets up 73+ cores are like 90's + but see when i play minecraft , or world of warcraft or diablo cpu stays around high 40's to 50's and core temps are around mids 60's i've tried everything to get it down and the problem i have is i used to be able to run rsbot compelety fine... i mean i could even run rsbot and play minecraft at the same time... the other day i relized my computer was being extremly laggy i thought it was my mouse because i just got a new one and i looked at the cpu temps ( this was just idle ) and they were 90's... i freaked out and took my computer apart and scrapped off the old thermal applied new and now its back to 40's but it seems to lag a bit at time.... now and it doesn't feel the same i applied theremal paste this is probally the 3rd time i applied it in the last 3 months... i don't get it i'm puting 2 rice grains sizes maybe not even that much i'm making sure it covers the whole cpu.. everything.. it only hits 100% when using rsbot

my computer keeps overheating whenever im doing gaming or otherwise. It first started when i was playing a game on Windows 7 and it crashed, and its been crashing ever since.
I have tried reinstalling Windows 7 and it crashed while it was reinstalling. however xp is more stable and since then whenever i try to play a game my computer freezes so i have come to the conclusion that's its an overheating problem.
I am not sure if its my gpu because its at 66c right now and it normally goes up to 80c while gaming. but i am also not sure if its my system fan as my bios says its going at 800rpm and easy tune pro comes up with a warning saying its too slow.

I'm having an issue with my Zotac AMP! GeForce GTX 550 Ti where it seems to be overheating at a low temperature. While playing Skyrim (low or high settings), at some point my sound will become very tinny and the game will drop to under 2 FPS about every 30 seconds. Most recently, Windows Aero disabled itself without an error message of any kind. After much frustration, I discovered that this only occurred when my GPU reached 50� and above.To me, this seems odd because I thought cards could perform at temperatures well over 70�. I'm also confused as to why this would even be affecting my sound at all. I've disabled all HD audio devices with NVIDIA drivers to use my Sound Blaster X-Fi Xtreme with drivers from Creative. I should mention that in order to get my GPU fan running at an appropriate speed, I have to manually set it to 100% with Zotac's OC utility FireStorm. I recently added three 120mm fans to my case. Does anyone know what could be wrong here?

5 months ago I bought a Toshiba Satellite z830, recently over the last 2 weeks I've noticed it getting very hot while running programs etc (i figured this was normal), however it gets so physically hot I thought maybe not so normal. I download speccy and it showed the following:
CPU: 80 - 85 degrees
Motherboard:80 -85 degrees
Harddrive: 55 - 60 degrees
Last night I would get those temps about a minute after I turn on the pc, after about 5 minutes windows will freeze and I would have to shut down. Some times a window would pop up saying 'the program is not responding' or something like that.

I have a HP Pavillion dv6680ea laptop, and I upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 32-bit. I find that the fan is constantly blowing and the computer is constantly overheating. After a small bit of searching through the forums I can see it may be an issue with upgrading the BIOS? But HP don't officially offer such an upgrade for this model.

System Manufacturer/Model Number
Sony VAIO VPCCW17FX (~2 years old) OS
Windows 7 Home Premium OEM 64 Bit (~1 month since clean install, 1 week since
[Code]......
I gave Best Buy my Sony VAIO laptop to fix it since I have the three year extended service. All I was getting fixed was a key on my mouse pad. I figured, no biggie.
They replaced my motherboard because the mouse key input was faulty. My computer now shuts off if I do any intensive task. For example, I scanned my computer for viruses with Malwarebytes and it turned off. There are no crash reports, and nothing in the logs to indicate the crash, but I will upload the full report anyway. I also have a CSV file with the temperature readouts (CPU gets up to 88 C, so I think this may have something to do with it, lol, but the temps right at crash were 54 C after climbing to 83 C or 78 C).
If I run any of the Prime95 tests, my laptop crashes fairly quickly.
Small FFTs (maximum FPU strtess, data fits in L2 cache, RAM not tested much) ~3 seconds In-place large FFTs (maximum heat, power consumption, some RAM tested) ~0.5-1 second Blend (tests some of everything, lots of RAM tested) ~3 seconds

It seems that my laptop's cpu temp is fatal as shown by asus nb probe, and I can tell it too because when I touch the other side of my laptop it is unusually very hot. it seems that my laptop crashes and BSOD because of my overheating laptop, and is there any way i can make my cpu fan faster?

i haven't seen this same thing so i figured i would ask. I have an nvidia GTS 250 all has been well for two years. I came in from dinner yesterday and noticed that my gpu fan, which is set to auto, was cranking at about 100% which is weird because there was nothing going on the computer. I pulled up EVGA precision and it was at about 83 degrees. normally i am around high 50's or so.it wouldn't come down no matter what. i thought it might be the new video drivers recently installed, so i tried the next beta and even rolled back and still the same thing. before i went to bed i tried watching Netflix. after about 5 minutes or so everything would stutter. as soon as i would touch my mouse it went back to fine. i shut it down and came home from work today. fired it up and temps seemed ok. played some small games and internet stuff, temps are all ok. walked away for a few and came back, temps were back to the 80's? as soon as i touched the mouse again, the temps started to fall a little. i figure it's the card so i take it out and set up a rma with EVGA. I put in an older 9800GT and it's doing the same thing. as long as i'm doing something on the computer all is well, but as soon as i stop the temp just shoots right up. anyone seen or had something like this happen?

My computer keeps shutting off recently due to overheating (the area near the exhaust feels extremely hot).How can I clean out the fan without voiding the warrenty (even though Im not sure if its still valid anymore).If it isnt, would all I ahve to do is open it up by unscrewing the whole bottom and clean out the dust?

specs: core i7, windows 7, 6 gb ram?Before, my laptop can last for 4+ hours with 100% battery.But now, it can only last for about 1 and a half hour with full battery.I'm pretty sure that the battery isn't the problem because when i start up my laptop, the battery displays "100% available 4 hours and 20 mins."Then suddenly, 2 mins after starting up, my laptop's fan is spinning too fast that i can hear it 2 feet away. And, not only spinning too fast, but also releases hot air.and BTW, even I'm not running at least 1 program, and my CPU usage is 30% or less ... the CPU or fan is hot.. and that's the problem.

I had 8 GiB of memory in my HP Pavilion dv7-4110em XE287EA#BED working at 1,066 MHz because one of the 2 4-GiB memory modules had a maximum frequency of 1,066 MHz. Today, I replaced that module with a 4-GiB module which can work at 1,333 MHz. So, now my 8 GiB of memory works at 1,333 MHz. Windows work noticeably faster.
However, the CPU and GPU temperatures now go over 90C and the laptop goes into hibernation. Is there a way to avoid this - somehow slow down the CPU when the temperature is too high, or similar? How can I make the laptop go into standby instead of hibernation when this happens?

I have my computer set to sleep after 30 mins of idle so that it won't stay on all night. But lately when I wake it in the morning, I have noticed the cpu temperature steadily rises over 2-5 mins until it gets so hot the computer shuts itself off without even performing a crash dump first. I started using Coretemp to monitor it to discover this when the shutdowns started, and WhoCrashed to try to figure out the crashes (but since its not creating a report that doesn't work). I normally run below 40 for idle and below 50 at load, but after waking from sleep it starts in the 30's and just keeps climbing without the fan ever becoming more audible or seeming to react. Its not a false reading either - you can SMELL it getting hot, thats why I got Coretemp involved in trying to figure it out.
It is now doing this every single time it sleeps, whereas before it was more random. After it shuts off (or I shut it off to protect it), and cools off for a few mins, I turn it back on and can hear the cpu fan kick on in high gear for a while then gradually slow down - interestingly it it does not kick in like that during the overheating after wake. So... what would cause the cpu fan to fail to compensate for overheating ONLY after waking from sleep mode?!

I have recently upgraded to Windows 7 RC1 on my main machine.
When playing pc video games, specifically Left 4 Dead, the game will freeze at randoms parts. After doing alot of different fixes the main resolution was to set my video cards fan to 100% speed.
Keep in mind the game ran perfectly fine with the same settings in Vista and fan running at normal speeds.
So I am assuming this is a Windows 7 problem.
Two other people also had this same problem.
I have an ATI, the other guy has an ATI, and the third guy has a Nvidia graphics card. So its 2 ATI and 1 nvidia.

I recently looked into this cards performance and even used furmark to benchmark test it. THIS program made the card reach 91c before I stopped it.I recently got MSI Afterburner to test it out even more accurately and it gave me readings of 79c only after maybe 4-5 minutes of play on Metro 2033 with High settings.It just worries me that it may be overheating at times.

Alight, so my ASUS G60JX has an overheating problem. A bad overheating problem. I created another thread a while back, but do to me getting busy( and ultimately forgetting about it) I marked it as solved.
Recently, I purchased Need For Speed: The Run (Limited Edition). It uses Frostbite 2, which is the same graphics engine as FIFA 2012, Battlefield 3, and some others . The requirements said that the game should work on my computer. It called for a 3.0GHz Core 2 Duo and a NVIDIA 8800 GT (a 512MB card). My specs being an i5 430M clocking at 2.66 GHz (dual core, quad threading), and a NVIDIA GTS 360M (a 1GB card), it SHOULD work.
However, after playing for about 2 minutes, the frame rate dropped to about 3FPS. I flipped over to HWmoniter, to find that my GPU was stressing out at about 125C, and my CPU at about 100C. My RAM wasn't maxing out, the CPU was at 70%, and the GPU was also at about 70%. So basically, I pretty ticked off that I spend $40 on a game that should have worked, only to find that it's destroying my GPU.
I tried cleaning out my heatsinks/fan, using a laptop pad, using a laptop cooling pad, and using a huge 25" vornado industrial fan. Placing the laptop directly on top of the vornado was the only thing that worked. The Vornado tactic kept everything running at full FPS, while pumping 1366x768 through a 36", and the temps never went beyond 64C. Obviously, it is not optimal to have my laptop in the middle of the room listening to that huge fan scream. It's loud. Like really loud.
I have come to the final conclusion that I'm 100% fed up with this. I have an idea of putting a small desktop GPU fan inside my case to replace the stock fan, along with some more heatsinks. Here is the fan I was thinking of using: Newegg.com - EVERCOOL VC-RF Ever Lubricate VGA Cooler

Haven't had a problem with my laptop in a long time, but having an issue. Specs in "My specs"My computer was getting real sluggish and I realized it was quite hot.Usually, my laptop blows out hot air as it is a gaming laptop, but it doesn't seem to be doing that. I looked in speedfan, and couldn't see any speeds for my computer, but the gpu was hitting 80C. topped out at 82C and I turned it off. Fan was not blowing out air at all...So I took of the bottom panel of the laptop so I could see the fan and the fan was moving every now and then. at 70C, the fan was not even moving and it started heating up again.... the fan didn't turn back on while it heated up to 75C so i turned it off again. The fan is moving slowly when it moves, but it is like it isn't being controlled as it should.
Also tried to blow out dust, took off heatpipes/heatsink and reapplied. I am travelling so I don't have thermal paste, but thermal paste looked good still. I had reapplied thermal paste recently so it still is in good shapeDownloaded MSI Afterburner and it seems the Fan speed is not changeable in there... its up to 75C again Any suggestions on what I can do to check the GPU fan speeds or reset the control for it so it spins back up as it should?

PC hissing/ CPU overheating When playing games then BSOD. This has been happening on almost every game I play, apart from ones with like PS2 graphics. The hissing noise starts asoon as i hit some graphically intensive areas.

I have been using this pc for over 2 years. In the Spring of this year the pc kept crashing. I have found out that the graphics card is reaching temperatures of 105 degrees C when playing games. I have cleaned all the fans in the pc with air. I have been told the heat sync is probably no longer functioning correctly. GPU temp is 66 deg C when the pc is in normal use and fan speed 40%. As soon as I play games the fan goes to 100% and the temperatures rise until the card crashes.

i got this problem playing high performance games..When i enter the following games (below) my graphic hits 75 - 85 celcius (what worries me is the world of warcraft... It's only on HIGH and it goes to almost 90 celcius)
World of warcraft (high)
Battlefield 3 (Ultra)
Guild wars 2 (Ultra)
I was reading abit about this problem on google and saw a person telling another one that was having the same problem as me that a PSU could heat up your GPU if it is just under your GPU.. - My PSU is not far from my GPU and the fan on my PSU is almost just up against my GPU so i kinda wonder can a PSU really heat up my GPU that much?My cousin got a very tiny case for his pc, he got a gtx 560ti and hits 65 - 70 celcius and goes 50fps in stormwind with 60+ players around him and 200 - 250fps outside stormwind. in stormwind i got 20 fps and in world i got 60 - 100 fps. I got a Evga GTX 580 1534MB myself and should be alot better then the gtx 560TI.. He also runs 20 - 30 fps higher then me in Guild wars (60 - 90fps) i am running 30 - 50fps..

Ever since I bought a new laptop, people kept telling me to take off the laptop battery once in a while and let it run solely on the charger/cable. They say that this could reduce the chances of overheating and could maintain a longer battery life. However, there have been others who say that it's actually bad to do so. Is it best to keep the laptop running with battery or not?
