what other heatsink do you have? the intel one is a waste of time

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

i used megashadow on the first place.. i only try using intel hsf if there's any changes but it came worse.. my temp in mega shadow at stock speed is 49c on cpu and on cores 51-58c on idle. in load 58c+ and cores 70c max..

Are you SURE you are installing it correctly and tight?

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

yep I installed it correctly and tight, and my fan are configured manually. and my room ambient is 28-29c.. what i should do now? should i send this for RMA?

Hmm, well maybe this is normal if your room ambient temp is 82-85F, that is fairly warm so your temps might be normal for such a hot room.

Most people who post temps have an average ambient temp of 68-72F

Even if you thought not, it would be the cooler you need to change, not the board.

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

I have never used it, so not sure?

I did think your temps were fairly warm, but now that you say your room is 28-29C/80-85F that makes a big difference, so your temps may be normal for such a warm ambient

one led in my board keeps on blinking between memory and procesor whats the meaning of that?

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

Get your manual PDF out and take a image of the LED that you mean and show us and we can tell you. Full settings need to be posted again too to be sure.

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

its the temperature LED... i think my mobo or proc had a problem.. tsk.. on stock clock @1.118vcore do you thinks this temp is natural?

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

have you checked to makesure your fans are blowing air towards the rear of the case?? look on the fan it will show arrows showing the direction of airflow and spin rotation,i dont mean to come over as patronising but its an easy mistake to make

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

no problem with the fan i know that.. im just worrying bout my cpu temp..i have 7x120mm 90cmf fan.... 4 intake 3 exhaust.. 1 exhaust at the back and 2 on the top, 2 fan intake below 1 in front.

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

Why 90MM fans?

120MM fans would be much better. Maybe you need more exhaust than intake?

Re: X58A-UD3R & i7 920 temp issue

wahhh i have 120mm not 90mm fans thats the airflow 90cmf..
