Just got my m1530
Its awesome ... but i would like to confirm this ...
my gpu goes up to 78'C peak after 3dmark06 benchmarking and few hours of gaming. (attachment below )
Is this in the safe range ?
I just opened up Speedfan and HWMonitor at the same time, and I notice they give different readings.
I've seen Speedfan report the CPU temp as high as 90. Whilst the machine is warm, I highly doubt this is correct.
I've had the machine on my lap whilst doing this and yeah, its pretty warm, but its not boiling ..
I have my m1530 for almost two years, and in last 2 months (after I've installed windows 7) i'm having troubles with my graphic card (nvidia g8600m gt). The problem is that in every game after few minutes there is a sudden drop of FPS. For example if i have a FPS of 50 after 2-5 minutes it goes down to 20. I checked my CPU and Memory load but there is nothing strange.
I have latest Nvidia drivers: 197.16
I also included as attachment a log file of GPU load and temp after playing 10 minutes of CoD 5.
I'm trying to figure out something: Is my GPU heating a little too much when I play World of Warcraft?
GPU Temperature in WoW: ±72°C
Driver: 175.97 (recommended by a lot of users here)
What temperatures are you guys getting in WoW?
So I used to have a T8785 or whatever it was, 2.0 ghz dual core, and i upgraded to a T9500 2.6 ghz.
Although ever since i installed it, on my CPUID hardware monitor the temps are wildly different per core (at core #0 is 40 and the other is 48 celcius). After awhile the fan stops running, the temps stay the same, increase a little bit perhaps 1-2 degrees (at idle),
and then all of a sudden the values will shoot up to 75-80, the fan will turn on, and they will teleport right down to 50 again, and the fan will stay on for awhile again, then it will rinse and repeat.
Got my self a new HP DV5-1110, Athlon X2, 3450.
But can anybody recommend any good monitoring software for Vista, 32bit?
On my desktop I use "dtemp", to show the harddrive temp in the sys tray, but dtemp cant read the hdd temp on my HP
And an another program for showing the cpu load or/and cpu clock in the sys tray..? tried NHC 2 pre 06, but it hangs when I go to settings to configure the program..
I just bought a Targus bag for my Sony Vaio, and one of the features of the bag is a magnetic flap that closes. Inside the bag has pockets where I store my portable harddrive. The magnetic button is right above my harddrive, so I'm a little concerned if this is going to be a problem or not.

View 5 Replies View Relatedi thought my air-intake was pretty hot so i checked with speedfan - and i get 47 idle on my CPU! (Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU T9400 @ 2.53GHz) is that normal?
Also my GPU is at 52 (FX1770)
Might need a BIOS update or?
I used to have a 3670 motherboard and dell gave me a 4670 and everything is great, but I can no longer see gpu temp in the monitor. I could at first and some how it's just gone now.

I got a copy of Neverwinter Nights 2 for free, so I went to play it. I was cruising along making my character, when my laptop shut off! I restarted, and it said it stopped because of temperature. So, I started up core temp so I could watch the temp, and restarted the game. Once I got into the game, and it's all that was running, neither of my cores went above 110 degrees F. Then, it shut down again. I was not running all the 'options' to make it pretty, but I was running it at 1920x1200. I dropped it down some so I could monitor the temps (same ratio, just a little smaller).
I updated my drivers to the newest MovileForce Drivers, and want to retest, but figured I'd also watch my card temps, to see if that was causing the shutdown?
I installed fangui, and no gpu temp is listed. I also was going to try nvtemplogger, but it said something like my card isn't capable of temperature monitoring?
So, how do I monitor it? Does my card have the ability to output it's temp to one of the tools?
i just received my sxps 16 ... generally very happy with it ..but when the cpu in full load for like 5 mins .. the cpu temp will shoot to very high about 85'C ..is it normal ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm wondering if there's something wrong with the heatsink on my m1330. It seems like the fan never turns off of full and the palm resets are always pretty warm (although it is summer and I don't use my AC).
I idle around 54C on both cores of my t8300. Is this normal or should I replace the thermal pad/paste?
I have a Dell XPS 1340, P8700, 9500M GS.
I noticed that when idle the temperature slowly goes up to 65C, then the fan kicks in, lowers it to 45 and stops. The temperature goes up again and in about 2 minutes it is already 65 again.
The process repeats indefinitely.
just wondering what it should realisticly run at while gaming? when im playing wow i get temps of upto 89c...
this card has just been replaced also! i think its a tad too hot but i may be wrong?
i have Dell inspiron 1300 and bought manhattan cooling pad. Till then i always noticed cpu and hdd temp changes in real time, without rebooting my notebook.
When i stared this pad everything was nice, notebook worked for 8h no stop, with cpu temp 39c and hdd 34c. When i reboted notebook cpu temp jumped to 51c and hdd was same (about 34). I repeated this and i got 51c again....
i was reading a few other posts about idle temps of the GPU in the XPS 1530 and my temps are way above what everyone else is getting.
I have an idle GPU temp of approx 80-88 degrees celsius. I mean i could maybe expect that under a heavy load, but an idle temp??? The fan seems to be on all the time.
is this normal? I'm no stranger to the heat problems these GPUs have--
I've already had one system replacement due to a bad GPU (btw, I have the nvidia chipset). Is this a normal operating temp for the GPU?
I'm encoding MKV to PS3AVCHD and the temp for the GPU is hovering around 90C. I will be encoding it for ~12 hours.
Should I be concern about it? The palm rest doesn't get too warm
With my Asus I was tracking my GPU temp while gaming with RivaTuner (I'd go back and check temp history from a graph)...what is the best free program to use for my precision these days?
View 9 Replies View Relatedi was playing world in conflict on a low res, this normal for the 1530
my CPU temp reaches 98 C while gaming..
When Im watching and HD movie or editing HD video material at some point the playback starts to halt and hiccup. Ive noticed that it happens when the GPU core temps hit 75 to 80. If I then wait a while and it goes down to 72 everything works fine again.
Is my computer downclocking maybe? Can I do anything to make it more stable, I dont mind if the fan works a bit more.
I have the Antec cooler, and it is louder than the notebook. So, looks like it will be going back to Staples.
I am looking for suggestions other than SpeedFan which is more than I want. For now,
I would just like some temps and some fan RPMs without going to the BIOS which of course requires rebooting.
i just bought a new wd3200bevt for the dv4t laptop. i observed that when on idle or doing little work the hdd temp maxes out at around 50 degrees. is that normal or too hot. what should i do if that's too hot? i am using the 12 cell battery most of the time so it is elevated a bit.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have a two month old M4400 with a ST9320423ASG hard-drive that hovers at around 40-41 deg.C (as reported by HDTune) under very light use (basically just Thunderbird and Firefox ).
I'm running Win7Ultimate 64-bit and the power plan is most of the time either on "balanced" or "dell".
This is what hdparm says about this drive (excerpt):
Code:
Advanced power management level: unknown setting (0x8080)
Recommended acoustic management value: 208, current value: 208
I wanted to know whether this temp is considered normal under my described usage conditions and if there's any tweaking that can be done to lower it.
Another bit of interesting information about this drive is that it used to click like crazy when it first came from Dell, until I installed the firmware update in mid Dec. It's been quiet like a mouse since then but I'm wondering if the new firmware could have made it run hotter.
Installed the win7 beta on my m1710 yesterday, and after a quick trip to windows update for some drivers, everything worked great with one exception.
Thier is a setting in power management for the processor to throtle the cpu before turning up the fan speed that is enable by default when on battery.
Maybe it was just a fluke with my unit, but when I unplugged it to move to the living room, it got hot, really, really, hot. Way hotter than I've ever felt it get with XP or Vista.
I've noticed my laptop has been running quite hot recently so I downloaded a thing called Speedfan, which tells me my CPU is running at 70-80 degrees C. Isn't this really, REALLY hot for a laptop? I really don't want it to overheat and break
I first noticed it and found that it was maxing out at 82 degrees, and the movie I was watching was getting jumpy. I was using WMP, MSN, Internet explorer for basic browsing, with Vuze running in the background. The most I ever use. This is my specification:
Acer Aspire 5535
4GB RAM DDR2
AMD Turion X2 Dual Core RM70 (2.0GHZ/1MB)
320GB HDD
Shouldn't this laptop be able to handle these tasks without getting so hot?
I have a 5920G. It gets around 90-94 c cpu and around 90 gpu.Is this normal or do i have to check it up. My room temp is like 30 c.
I wanted to know if this temp will harm the cpu.
I have a dv7t with a Fujitsu 250GB 5400rpm HDD. I've tried multiple programs including HWMonitor and non of them are able to tell me what my HDD temp is. Why can't I monitor my HDD temps?

So therefore, I was wondering how the gaming is on your sexy HP. Not graphically wise or fps and such, but temp wise. For instance, how long do you get to game for before things get too hot or do you manage to keep things at decent temps for a full day worth of gaming
Personally I don't play too intensive games, mostly world of warcraft. Nothing hardcore like crysis and stuff. So i'd imagine i'd get some decent gaming hours as long as i keep things cool haha by getting a zalaman pc cooling pad and if i decided to undervolt.
