so... is this umm.. too low?

[K2]

i bought one of those 1700+ T-bred B processors..the ones that are downgraded from a 2600+

i set mine at 2600+ ... so far so good.. no problems..

but i'm just curious.. i went to check my bios for the temps .. and it reported 26-27 degress celsius... so does that seem right to everybody?

i'm using a Thermlright SLK-800 heatsink with a 3000 rpm 39 cfm sunon fan. i also used arctic silver 3 for the heating compound

TIA

Remember, he's from Canada so room temps might only be a few degrees Celsius...



K2, just messin, eh?


Yeah, those temps sound way too low...What motherboard are you using? Is there a BIOS update available?

i am using a Gigabyte GA7VAXP

there is a new bios out there... but when i touch my heatsink.. its pretty cold.. its not even warm..

You sure the heat sink is touching the cpu? I guess if it wasnt the cpu would burn up, but stranger things have happened.
