Hi there,

I'm having serious problems with my CPU, It's an Intel pentium 4 running at 3,6 GHz (standard).

And my bios says it's at a temperature of 65 degrees Celsius, all fans are running and im not overclocking anything.

I'm not experiencing any lockups so far.

I attached my dxdiag

If anyone could help me that'd be great!

thanks in advance

So the stock FAN is not doing what it should be doing?

I'm getting Vapochill soon, and it will replace most fans so that would probabley solve the problem then

But until then, is there anyway I can speed up the fan or underclock my CPU? because this is killing it..

I hardly call 65 degrees ''getting the job done''

So what you're saying is that I should replace my stock fans with better ones, but I intend to get Water cooling in a few month's.... though until that time I might get a better fan

Well, If I notice my heatsink/fan is clean and my CPU is running at 65c Umm,it's gonna take a one way trip from atop of my CPU to my garbage can.

in fact, I think I have my threshhold point set at around 60c just to be safe. As I said try checking the heatsink fins for dust/crap it is usually the first culprit.

Those CPU's are supposed to run hotter than a Northwood, but damn that much hotter?

Let's say it wasn't Intel's intention for them to run this hot when they were designed, but happened anyway...

There are quite a few articles to be found on it when you do a Google search...

Don't waste money on water cooling; buy a decent fan.

lol. seems you have no idea about good cooling solutions. anyone who'd like to ovrclock a highend sys needs watercooling at some point if he doesn't want to have turbines in his case for a good airflow. and even if you got thos they can't nearly almost do their job as good as a good watercooling system can. and of course they aren't quiet. and all they do is to get the heat away from the component itself but you still need to get the hot air out of your case. but a watercool system can keep you temperatures around 30

I know quite much about overclocking, as I've overclocked countless computers. It mostly boils down to having the correct fan.

I've overclocked my computer now to the point where it doesn't boot if I go any higher on any value.

It's running at 42-50

so what cpu might that be...

try it with a p4 like the one from the topic or an AMD64...

and how much did you increase the vcore for cpu and gpu?

and 28db is so damn loud. anything above 20db is loud in my ears...

your watercooling system was crap, that's all. you can't compare a 50

I've got an AMD XP 2400+ which was originally running at 2 000 MHz an is now running at 2 266MHz.

Concerning the GPU, with stock fan, it is now running at C:369, M:349,5, as opposed to C:325, M:310.

lol, geez, I think the integrated fan on my notebook is almost that loud.  And some people just want their processor to run; overclocking is not an "everybody who owns a comnputer" thing.  It's kind of...techno-geek, so to speak?

lol it's no problem to keep a 2400+ silent. try it with a amd64 3200+ or higher or a p4 3,6ghz... you will always have temps about 50-60

Wasn't there a group of guys who used liguid nitrogen cooling or something to o/c a mid-range P4 or similar to over 5 GHz?

its possible to OC a 3ghz to 4ghz with good water cooling..... so with liquid Nitro  i am assuming you could go higher... so what you describe could be possible.
