paradox 23 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 I know it doesn't *need* it, just something to do really At idle, the iLO Zone temp sensor has gone from 47c to 38c, so that's pretty good nonetheless Link to post Share on other sites
Shonk 139 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 passive mine went from around the same to 40-41 i believe I cant look atm as its boiling today 29 inlet and its also encoding with handbrake (has been for a few days constantly) Link to post Share on other sites
Joe_Miner 254 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Do you have a before/after on your temp profiles? Link to post Share on other sites
paradox 23 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 (edited) Do you have a before/after on your temp profiles? You mean just a screenshot of this? Also I think, for some reason, the temp sensor on this CPU doesn't read below 40c or something like that? I stressed it a bit and saw it increase a few degrees, but it won't ever drop below 40c, (Xeon E3-1230 v2) now someone with the same CPU I think had the same 'problem' with it seemingly stuck at 40c? maybe it's not actually at 40c, maybe it's lower and the sensor just won't show under 40c for some reason? I can't get mine to go any lower even if I let it idle and let the (CPU) fan run at full speed, yet it does get higher. strange. Edited July 4, 2015 by paradox Link to post Share on other sites
Joe_Miner 254 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Nice, thanks. In Win I've used OpenHardWare Monitor and CoreTemp to see CPU temps better & below 40C. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TLN 7 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 (edited) I added a small heatsink/fan combo on top of the iLO chip using some Akasa thermal tape. It fits just about and the tray slides in and out fine. I think i'm going to get another one and replace the small northbridge(?) heatsink. It's a bit larger than the chip, but if I use the thermal tape to secure it that will stop the heatsink from contacting the board and causing a short or something. What is THAT on your chipset? You cut aluminum radiator in half and put copper on top? ps. OMG, theres's some copper clued on top of MOSFET rad next to CPU Edited July 5, 2015 by TLN Link to post Share on other sites

TLN 7 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 I mean the idea of putting one rad on top of another is ... uhhm. I doubt it ever required something besides stock rad, unless you test it with IR tetmometer first. It will do more harm, like worse air flow rather then effictevely cool it. Not to mention how it looks. Link to post Share on other sites
