Vanguard382 Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 hey i was just wondering how hot a computer usally runs. I have a 3.4 p4 prossecer and my computer idiol runs at about 44C or 111F loaded it runs like 52C or 53C usally about 47C when loading. Is this high and if so would a new heatsink work?

Tarun Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 That's normal for P4's. Especially with HTT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vanguard382 Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 would a new hetasink be worth buying or not. If so what type of metal would be the best? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Andavari Posted October 15, 2005 Moderators Share Posted October 15, 2005 One way which is free is to make sure your PC tower isn't inside of a computer desk PC tower shelf, even with port holes in the back of those desks I feel as though they still starve a system of efficient air. Air has to be drawn into the front of the tower, and it has to be unobscured in the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kobrakommander56 Posted October 26, 2005 Share Posted October 26, 2005 Vanguard the problem is not the temperature, it is the fact that you are running a pentium, get an AMD processor. Insert random C4 joke here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
