Re: CPU Temperature question



This is what I have installed:

Intel Pentium D 830 3.0gGHz DT 800FSB Socket 775
Intel D945PVSLKR Socket 775 Motherboard
Intel Original Socket 775 Prescott Cooling Fan
Coolmax ATX 400w PS w/ Silent 120mm Fan Black
Plus drives and one PCI card.

The case is a Cooler Master Cavalier 1 with a 120mm rear fan and 80mm
intake fan.

I did remove everything, reapplied compound again and reinstalled
everything but still the same temperatures. It is all fine while
working but as soon as I install something or work with something like
WinRar (unpacking only so far) the temperature spikes up.

So you say I shouldn't be worried about the PCU "frying" on me?

What can I do since I want to protect my investment?

Thanks,
Cristian
