Help! NP9262 Temp.

my NP9262 is running 52-58 C idle.
66 C idle for the GPU.
(there's a verifying process of raid going on the background)

i dunno if it's normal, because the touchpad is blazing hot.

or maybe rmclock is overvolting it as it sets all the 3 multiplier with the same 1.237 V.
btw, my cpu is Q9550.

im planning to undervolt it, but i dont know the default voltage, so ill just leave it be for now.

any suggestions?


thx

 

those temps are normal

 

really? i remembered from other thread that the normal temp should be below 50C.

isnt it? lol

^^

 

below 50 if you have a Zalman NC2000 or another laptop cooler.

 

LOAD temps are the problem. If they go close to 80C that is.
If not, use max fans or something and you`re fine.

 

im using zalman nc-2000.
the temp roams around 55-58.
i tried using fn+1, the temp will go down to 49-51.
is this healthy?
or should i undervolt it?
hmm, and does any1 know the stock voltage and a good undervoltage for Q9550?

thx

 

Are you sure those are the correct temps.I am using 3 programs and each gives different temperature . The difference is 10 degrees. Which one is the right one?

PL

 

i think rmclock will give the correct temp.
btw, can i know ur cpu voltage for all the multiplier?

thx ^^

 

@irric: The touchpad's probably hot from one (or more) of your hdds, not from your CPU; I'd check your drive temps if I were you.

 

My touchpad gets warm but never hot.... and I have 2 7200rpm's

 

Then they must be working just fine; if they weren't, they might cause the touchpad to get hot.

 

Undervolting is not that scary. Just start at your current voltage at the max multiplier, drop the voltage one increment at a time and test each time for 15-20min with orthos, if it's stable, keep going. Orthos will crash way before windows does. Once you get to that point, bump it back up one and test of 8 hours, if it passes, you're done.

Just be sure to do it somewhere as cool as possible, orthos runs crap hot.

My T5550 load temps went from 72 to 53 after undervolting.

 

I use Core Temp to monitor CPU temperature, Speedfan for HDD temperature, and Rivatuner to check GPU temperature. I don't use a notebook cooler and my temps are all under 50C idle. Although since it is summer, I keep max fans on constantly.

 

200gig 7200rpm seagate run hot.....if I knew that ahead of time, I would have gotten something else.

 

I got my second HDD as a Western Digital Scorpio 320GB, and it runs about 11C cooler than the stock 80GB Fujitsu drive. That may be because I installed it in the battery HDD bay area, but still. It is quite a solid drive, and its load times are equal to that of my desktop's 7200 RPM drives despite being labeled as a 5400 RPM drive.

 

the problem is, im using RAID-5
everytime i got a blue screen, i have to force shut down, and after that..
guess what, the raid-5 will begin to verify hdd for error, which will slow down my laptop.

hmmmph... T_T
