    Hey everyone, just installed T9300 in my 6831fx and just wanted your input on the first test i put it through.

    I ran it Orthos for 20mins while I was eating dinner and the cores are pretty even at a max of 57/58c.

    What do you guys think? and if you think theres room for improvement let me know.

    Thanks!

    What kind of thermal compound did you use? Those temps are fine but look a bit high for stock speeds. I would suggest getting some MX-2 it's the best out there for everyday use and it's much better than arctic silver. Here is a link MX-2_at_Newegg

    57/58c are great temps. No need for improvment.

    Try using Coretemp and/or RMclock to make sure this reading is accurate

    I used as5... thin layer as the all the forums recommended, check the transfer of it on the heatsink and transfered good. Im pretty sure the temps are fine but then again, just want a read out from multipile users.

    Trust me you will see a difference if you apply MX-2 instead of AS5!!!

    If you don't believe me go google some reviews on MX-2, it spanks AS 5.

    Also AS 5 is toxic MX-2 isn't. AS 5 can conduct electricity and MX-2 doesn't conduct electricity.

    There's no need to change your thermal compound to anything else. Your temps are just fine. Have fun with your new found power! :)

    thanks everyone for the feedback. I was feeling good with my results and now I feel alot better. and to freddy, thanks for the suggestion, but im comfortable with as5 and if i feel as if my temps get a bit higher than the norm in a couple months, i might take up ur suggestion, however i will research MX-2 for the pros and cons.

    thanks again everyone.

    just relax
    AS5 need some time to to reach his maximum, so i think after some days you should have lower temps.

    Coolabratory "spanks" that stuff by about the same number of degrees that it "spanks" AS5 by. (1.5 vs 2) Why aren't you glouriously proclaiming it's second coming and saviourship to mankind already, with how much you glorify that stuff, this stuff is God or something.

    Man I would have never signed up for these forums if I knew these were so many haters here :mad: :mad: :mad: !!

    What is your problem Stealth? Did you just post here to be a jerk or do you have something useful to say? Are you one of those jerks who thinks he is so 1337 he can only post to insult people? Get a life man and do some research before you make yourself look ignorant.

    First of all coolabratory is dangerous to use and it degrades mostly all metal surfaces.

    Secondly it conduclts electricity so if you drop some on your mobo you could fry it if you don't clean it up properly.

    Also read this review ----> coolabratory review

    I was just saying if he is worried about heat and wants something safe to use, MX-2 performs really well and is safe for everyday use. I didn't say it was Jesus sauce or anything.

    I was trying to help, what were you trying to do Stealth? :confused:

    Simply acting towards you like the smug attitude you put on in your first post. You acted like you knew everything.

    Anyway, I have heard good things about MX-2, but please, don't just come on in and say stuff to the tone of: "U IZ ALL DUM U USE AS5 I USE MX TUH CUZ I IS AWSUM."

    In my first post the guy was worried about temps so I suggested a better thermal compound? How does that suggest that I am smug? Isn't it really smug to stay on the bandwagon for an older product that has been improved upon just because you don't care to learn or try anything new?





    In the other post all I said was "Trust me you will see a difference". Then I pointed out that MX-2 is safer than AS5. How the heck is that smug?? What's wrong with you man? The only reason why I'm promoting MX-2 is because it's safer, better for the envoirnment and it performs better. What's wrong with that?




    Do you just troll these forums to insult people? Man this is one of those moments that should earn you negitive rep points. You my friend have now earned "Dirty Troll" status in my book. Go back to hiding under your bridge untill you have something helpful to say. kthx

    P.S.
    Talk about smug... I don't have 1337 in my avatar when I am as new as you on these forums.

    lol... thats the same thing as MX-2. They are both made by Shin Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. and are derivatives of Shin-Etsu X23.

    Awesome call though TX-2 is a lot cheaper for the same thing!!


    yummmmmmm.... cookiez!! :D

    Hi all!
    I purchased an X9000 CPU and here are my temps (Under World of Warcraft), if I put a book under my laptop:
    TZS0: 64C
    TZS1: 75C

    CPU: 64C
    Core0: 63C
    Core1: 67C

    Are these temps good? (Expesially the TZS temps) Btw, is TZS1 the chipset next to the CPU?

    Mine were about 4C higher than yours and about the same as my old T5450..they both have TDP of 35-36W. In day to day stuff my 9300 runs cooler with less fan activity..unless I crank things up with encoding.

    Congrats and enjoy.

    P.S. Don't eat the AS 5!..but something to think about in 50 years when a landfill full of AS 5 will kill a rat 50 feet away ;)

    Sorry big D, I was responding to the OP question, your bad boy X9000 shoud be a 46W part? Good to hear you and others can run that with the Pxxx stock heat pipes!

    Can't they just safely undervolt the x9000...? Or are the extreme series more complicated that that?

    Also Drevan, WoW uses one processor to play; I would suggest trying a game that can take advantage of both processors. Or running Orthos I guess.
