Re: Is 80C too high for 920 D0? said by The WeaseL:Within Intel's spec, I believe it is. Would I let it run that high? No. What is your water setup like, that seems way too high for a water setup. From what i've read the 920 D0 chips run very hot when voltage is upped beyond 1.3 but still indeed it's quite hot.
However with 22C Ambient it only runs up to 75C.
The setup is: Swiftech Apogee GT CPU Water-Block (it is an 775 block with an extra 1366 adaptor mount). Danger Den DD5 Water pump (the 2005 version not the newest variac one). 1/2" Tydon tubing Black Ice Tri 120" Fan radiator 6 Skythe Ultra Kaze 120"(133 cfm) Fans set on push/pull configuration
Radiator is outside of case and the pump is supported to the mid case height in order to minimize the gravity water head pressure reduction. |

 | Is the air coming from the radiator warm?
I am not familiar 920 running temps but that just seems warm. -- How lucky am I to have known someone who is so hard to say good-bye to. |

 1 edit | said by The WeaseL:Is the air coming from the radiator warm? I am not familiar 920 running temps but that just seems warm. Yeap it's warm. The damn PC can heatup my room in 2 hours from 22C Ambient to nearly 28. 
But I am still wondering if the heatsink is not seated properly. However I do not want to fight it again trying to remove it and put it back on, it's a pain in the arse the way it's configured now. Additionally if I were to remove it I would have to leak test the setup again due to any torque that might have been applied to the tube couplings during the procedure. I lost one Motherboard once by failing to do that. 
Hence I was hunting for a temp norm for that chip at those specs on water.
P.S. The Wattage usage of the CPU is 147 Watts. |

 | Well maybe she just runs hot then. If the air coming off the radiator is warm and its just the CPU, not sure what else you could do besides adding more to the loop. -- How lucky am I to have known someone who is so hard to say good-bye to. |
