How's everyones Winter Temps?

[Tim Drake]

Just a thread about how much your temperatures have decreased since before Winter

 

 

Graphics Card: 5c Cooler on idle (29c on idle, no fans YEOOO)

Processor: 5c cooler on idle and load

 

[Tahab_1]

I get 29 degrees idle now! But fans are all at 1000+rpm

[ThyFeared]

All while using chrome. Yay stock heat-sink 

[Laputacake]

cpu=34c idle

gpu=35c idle

[Sadistic_Potato]

Well it's 20-25 degrees Celcius at winter in Dubai over here, so....

 

I mean in the summer it skyrockets to around 40-50 degrees, but at least the A/C is brilliant so it stays at 20-25 indoors. 

 

Am I the only person who doesn't really get how components can get so much cooler in the winter?

[Jobbe03]

I'm at around 15c ambient, 21c CPU idle, 25c GPU idle.

[Firearm2112]

I put my eGPU infront of my window, which gives me even greater temps! Playing intense games with my reference card it never gets to 75 degrees!

22C Idle With 19,5C Ambient

 

37C Load With Stated Ambient C

I'm at around 15c ambient, 21c CPU idle, 25c GPU idle.

 

Nice one dude!

 

Anyone done some temporary Winter Overclocks?

[bamerx98]

I didn't really notice a drop yet again I am in a pretty well heated house so its normally the same temperature all year round inside only if I crack a window to do some overclocking for example last year I was able to push 1.6 volts on a amd 8350 on a h100i and get a few cinebench runs in. But other then that pretty much no change in temperature.

GPU's are around 70C underload and CPU won't break 45C at 4.4Ghz 1.35V

GGWP with that CPU temps, what cooler you got?

[Octavialicious]

my gpus are still running 70 under load

[Guest]

I try to play any game that is more demanding than Minecraft and after about 10 minutes my Laptop turns off.

NH-D14, I have 3 120mm fans on my case always at 12V so it helps.

well, 2*c lower ambient. As long as you have decent airflow means 2 degree cooler computer.

as for me it's -10*c outside and i still have the windows open trying to get rid of some excess heat. 

 

Maybe 5-8*c cooler than peak summer, otherwise it's pretty much the same. 

[H4X3R]

CPU on load = 49*C

 

GPU on load = 49*C

 

Cpu is a 5820K @ 4ghz and GPU is a 970 OCd to 1455mhz on the core and +200mhz on the memory.

 

I just got this system in october so i can't say how it runs during summer, but my room was smokin' HOT when i had my 8350 @ 5.1ghz and an r9 290 @ 1300mhz core and +300mhz mem.

[OCing Noob]

- 9 outside  Ambient 20 cpu on 17-22C all cores . Gpu 19C under load GPU . 53C topz CPU 54C tops

Trust me, when you live somewhere like Lillehammer or Aomori or New England and winter rolls around, you can start overclocking on a stock heatsink. It gets crazy cold in the north.

I mean the one on top of your processor haha

[Sadistic_Potato]

Well I've just got a steady 23 degrees average. 

 

I may have no winter benefits, but at least I have no summer worries.

 

Can someone tell me some horror stories of overheating components in the summer (if you've got any?)

 

I...still don't get it. OC'ing with the stock heatsink

I have heard you can overclock the Pentium G3258 on stock cooler to around 4.0ghz or 4.2ghz fine. But probably just bullshit

[KemoKa]

I'm running windows 10, so HWmonitor is being a whiny little tool with compatibility errors. Intel EXTU is showing me idling at around 23°C with an ambient room temp of about 19°C. Bear in mind that that's with the case fans at 5V, and with itunes, filesystem and four firefox tabs open. Downscaling a 1080p video to 540p in Handbrake, the highest temp I got was 51°C, and it stayed at around 47°C most of the time.

This is at 4.5GHz. My fans aren't even set to start ramping up until it gets to 65°C. Tomorrow I think I'll leave the windows open and then we can get some real temperatures going.

Its a Noctua NH-D14.

Given the ridiculously low power requirements on the G3258 due to it being a Haswell and the fact that it only has two cores, so not a lot of heat output compared to say, my i7, which has four HT'd cores, I'd not be surprised to see figures close to those. You can certainly get a hefty overclock out of the box.
