new build -hot cpu!! help me :(

If it doesnot get above 60C you be ok. Just clean off the thermal paste with alcohol and apply a new coat with amount of a pea or 1 1/2 grains of rice in size. Spread it evenly and you will be good to go, idle for a stock cooler should be under 45C 04dcarraher

cpu fan is at 2000 rpmvegita92

How's this?:

Prolimatech Megahalems with a Scythe "ULTRA KAZE" Fan - $65+$10

i think i applied a lot. the thermal paste was thick also.. my case has side window open. i think i will buy a aftermarket cooler... anyway i'm on bios right now , and I'm too scared to install windows, coz the cpu might get hotter. :( right now is at 48 c should i install windows? vegita92

Well that's the case, if you're running at stock settings with a stock cooler you'll be fine. But thwe case is you used too much thermal paste. You're suppose to drop a little bit like the size of a rice and evenly spread it out. Another factor is that the heat sink is not securely installed.

P.S. if you want a new cooler get the Arctic cooler 7 pro, but only get it if you plan on overclocking.

i didn't reapply thermal paste, coz i don't have alcohol , but i spread the paste and made it less thick, and it dropped some 2c i think now is at 48c before was 50c if i put a fan in front of cpu it only drops 1 c and lowers rpm i also had my eye on arctic cooling freezer pro 7 , but the only problem is that i have a small cheap case (i think is middle tower?)vegita92

are there any pics that compare arctic cooling freezer 7 pro to intel heatsink side by side? vegita92

here it is

Found it:

And

Good value for money though :)

thnx for that, but what i meant is size , but thats cool too :)vegita92

well compare this image of the intel cooler

With this one of the Arctic cooling

[QUOTE="vegita92"]thnx for that, but what i meant is size , but thats cool too :)UltimateGamer95

but artic cooling is a low gamut cpu cooler for the price in most of the case the Scyth mugen II which variate from 25-30$ with stock heatsink is said as cool as )best Artic Cooler cpu cooler) while any fan of 3-10$ will bring it much more airflow in several test tough i don't really understand how rpm / cpu cooling work's i base my information on benchmark done by Xbitslab / bit-tech / Anandtech

yet it Seem xbitslab are the one who do those test inside Case rather then testbed so they do it in antec 1200 which is a more hot case then HAF932 Cause it as less Airflow Cooling then HAF932 but i know one thing the thermal endurance at high frequency for Q9550 is around 90C before it can fry tough it not recommend to get it higher then 50C

but i guess some people just want the extra power and run them at 68-75C and as no much issue that i heard about to let it work on for a around 24/24 7/7 stability if you want a Great cpu cooler it said the prolimatech megahalems + 1 Scyth kaze is as cold as Thermalright 120 true + 2 Kaze but why ?

it seem i heard that The prolimatech megahalem + two Fan 2600rpm fan as less efficacy airflow then 1 high rpm fan such as 3000rpm kaze which as bad sleeve bearing so lot of noise but work pretty cold but it seem it like when you put 3 fan on Thermalright IFX-14 3 fan = 5C more hot then 2 fan in OC http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/coolers/display/core-i7-coolers-roundup_19.html#sect0


even tough it a core i7 : the core i7 thermal endurance and Quad core are similary in a way but it said core i7 920 is more Tough and stable to run at 75C then Q9550 will ever be but QX9650 ad a bit more thermal endurance i heard compare to Q9550 but that i don't really know
