That CPU temp is an IDLE temp (this morning)
Computer shut off on me a few times last night while gaming. Has to be a heat issue. I now have to look for a new HSF so i dont burn my house down. Any recomendations? Would like to have it under 40$.

Re: Not good!
Try the brand new Scythe Mine. Works better than a ninja, it's smaller, and it costs about the same price.Originally posted by Sir. MatDef
My idle temps going from the Ninja to the Mine went from 32c to about 28c.Comment

Re: Not good!
I have no experience with that heatsink, but I strongly recommend the one I linked. It's the best heatsink I've ever used, and I am a hardware whore.Comment

Re: Not good!
Yes it is 2nd on my list. Did it come with thermal compound?Originally posted by Wreck
Can't really purchase anything yet though.
Yes i guess i can ber a hardware whore at times also, aswell as many more on these forums... *cough*jimmy*cough*.
Ty for your help wreck, sacky, and matdef.
Well clean the stock HSF only helped a little. But now im down to only 1GB of ram. Wierd thing is with both 1GB sticks in the two DDR2 slots that I have, the computer will not boot or post. Switch them around same thing. keep one stick in slot 2 computer starts. but other Stick will not work in the same slot.
Happend to me before when i got the other 1gb stick, installed it, no go, flicked the PSU switch off then reinstalled the ram stick, bingo it worked. Now it will not... Hard thing is i dont know what is at fault either the ram or ram slot or both... either way its gonna set me back...Comment

Re: Not good!
Really? I guess I must go out and buy one. Does it use the same mounting system as the ninja?Originally posted by WreckTry the brand new Scythe Mine. Works better than a ninja, it's smaller, and it costs about the same price.

Re: Not good!
2.27V vcore? 228W Power Consumption? I'm not too familiar with P4 530s but is that normal?Comment

Re: Not good!
Yea i think so however the 3rd part apps that i use to check temps are usually right or a few points off, but voltages are mostly all wrong.Originally posted by FlankerComment

It's mounting is slightly different, but can mount to socket 478, AMD, and 775. Basically it will mount to anything, and the system is slightly improved. Very versatile, no tools needed.
The only thing that needs mentioning with my DFI is that instead of blowing from front to back the fan blows top to bottom. Meaning that if you blow from the top of the case to the bottom you will be blowing hot air onto your video card. I think on standard boards it's set up correctly though. I've added an extra fan to draw this heat away.
No, thats not right. Northwoods didn't even used that much voltage. Seems like it may be bad sensors on the board.Originally posted by FlankerComment

Re: Not good!
Yup it is, motherboard is the only cheap thing i went with when I built my computer this time last year, ECS 915p-A REV1.1 only reason why i bought it was because it has AGP aswell as PCIexpress so i could use my old 5200 for a bit.Originally posted by WreckComment
