I have bought this Amd processor the same time I built my first pc (a specialized company made it for me-I mean the assembly), about a year ago. It worked smooth but now it shows me an idle temperature of 49-51 degrees Celsius. I think the guys that assambled the pc knew what they where doing, but the cpu is too hot for my taste. Is this normal? Should I replace the box cooler? I live in Romania, a temperate climate country, and it gets pretty hot outside, and no ac. At an environment temperature of about 30+ celsius is this processor going to fial or what. Keep in mind that it's a Clawhammer on 130mm. I ran CPUZ and that is what it showed me. To change the cooler and heatsink or not? Don't propose water cooling cause is too expensive for my budget. I have 2 fans in the back of the case, one on the side, and one in the front. So I have a good air circuit. What's the matter?
That sounds about right to me. I'm running a solid copper Thermaltake heatpipe cooler with a 92mm vantec tornado. It's on a 3400+ newcastle core A64 and I get about 49-50 C most of the time. Thats not really very hot for a CPU. My old dual palamino setup ran MUCH hotter. The guys running pentiums usually run hotter as well, but they also run much higher clock freqencys.
Yea, I wouldnt worry about it.
You might also make sure the heatsink is clean of debree. Mine has a tendency to run hotter when its dirty.
