your temps will probably drop a little more in time, maybe like 3-4*.
prime 95 will cause it to heat up more as the test continues...try running it for a couple hours and see what they do.
is your 5000 a brisbane or windsor?
if it is a brisbane, your temps should still be lower yet with a 9500 (my 3600 idles at like 26* with my 9500).
if it is a winnie, it aint gonna get much better than that, im afraid.
to all you amd guys out there, by the way....newegg has no more 3600 brisbane oem. eek. |
I don't know about that. My 6000+ (Windsor F3) idles at 21ºC at stock (3.0GHZ). Although I do have watercooling on it.
I haven't tried taking off the IHS. My 6000+ seems to be a really good one as far as temperatures go. Much cooler than my 4600+ ran, even though it is also a Windsor at lower clock speeds.
