Re: lets see your rig

Looking Cool, Im getting rid of my small blue Cathodes for 4 larges ones ( 1 at top, 1 at bottom, and 1 on each side ).


I like the LED Fans at the front of the case, Looks wicked.

Re: lets see your rig

heh, They only cost a few £/$.


Ive got a few questions for someone to answer


1. I cant view my CPU tempreture anywhere, appart from the BIOS, So i cant see what temps i get under stressing it. Anyone know a program that will pick it up? Ive tryed Sensorview, Speedfan & Coretemp.


2. I cant seem to increase my Multiplier in BIOS, I have the Latest version, But its greyed out, which means i cant hit 3-3.2ghz ish unless i increase my FSB - But then my RAM gets pushed too far.



Thanks

Hawman, do any of the sensors detected in SpeedFan seem to change when you suddenly run a program like Orthos? SpeedFan is very configurable and is a powerful program so there should be some way even if you have to set an offset or something.

If you can't adjust the multiplier then it is a BIOS problem and you should probably e-mail MSI support. The chipset wouldn't limit multiplier adjustment and the CPU's multiplier is unlocked (unless AMD gave you the wrong chip which I would find highly unlikely, although you can check by looking at the info on the chip's heatspreader).

Re: lets see your rig

Hi Matt, sorry i didnt see your post - Yeah im sure its a BIOS problem too, Ill probably email MSI later tonight. Ill give speedfan another go, but it shows my cores to be around 6C lol.


Heres another pic from me.




Heres the temps using speedfan. No idea which one to believe, The Second core didnt show above 50C for some reason.

Re: lets see your rig

Which one of those just change when you load the CPU (even if they still seem unreasonably low)?

CPU temps for dual cores are not reported by speedfan 4.33. Download beta issue 34 and it'lll report correctly.
