I have my e2160 at 3,2ghz, idle it's 16-20 degrees Celsius, under full load(orthos, prime) about 45-55 degrees Celsius.

I'm using a Scythe Ninja CPU cooler.

I love this bang for buch cpu, it let's you overclock it so easily, and so stable...

[deehoo]

In most of cases programs shows CPU's temperature wrong with this one. Try with the lastest Core Temp. If it shows that tjunction value is 85 degrees, you should add +15C to temperatures because true tjunction value for this processor is 100 degrees.

Are you using an internal capture program like Fraps or Gamecam? If you are, then that processor seems like an INCREDIBLE bang for buck :o

I hope this is the case because my new system coming in is almost identical but with an 8800GT :)

[deehoo]

I used Fraps. However I had to reduce resolution 1440x900 -> 1024x768 to have satisfactory framerate while capturing the screen. That's because Fraps drops FPS like 10-20 while recording.

WOW! Knowing the processor is that good just makes me more anxious for my system to come :)

Thanks for the vid and thanks for answering, really helped realize that my new system will own. :}

[deehoo]

I'm just glad if I could help :) This processor is overclockable even with it's stock cooler. I'm sure you will be satisfied.

I am aware of that, I use the latest core temp since other programs like TAT aren't very precise.

[deehoo]
