Re: processor heat problem

Well it might be that silent hill 2 actually needs more processing power ie from the cpu, but other games might be more grfx oriented therfore the grfx card takes much of the power...

"ie. hardware vs. software intensive"
I dont thing that there is such a thing as "software intensive". I dont see what you mean by that. The gfx card is also hardware.

toxix you might want to get a case with a side air intake for the CPU if you dont already have one.

Re: processor heat problem

I mean that processing is software intensive (ie. it has to go through the cpu) but hardware is when i talk about it going only through the grfx card and processing is done on the grfx card.

Even though this only happens with sh2 just perform a major clean up ie: try to clean your heatsink from dust and the likes , make sure the ventilation is not blocked.

Re: processor heat problem

Thank you for contacting Intel(R) Technical Support.

I understand that you are seeking information regarding the operating
temperature of the Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 processor at 3.2E GHz.

The maximum operating temperature of the Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 processor at
3.2E GHz is 69.1 degrees Celsius. As long as the processor is operating
under this temperature, it is operating within specifications. We recommend
setting any thermal alarms about three (3) degrees below the maximum
recommended temperature for the processor. We do not have a normal operating
temperature for the processor as this temperature will very depending on the
chassis and other hardware installed on the system as well as the actual
load the software is placing on the processor. For more information on
thermal management, you may visit
http://support.intel.com/support/proces … hermal.htm

The processor is operating with in the design specifications. You need to
use a thermally advantaged chassis. A Thermally Advantaged or 38C chassis
will help maintain the internal chassis temperature below 38 degrees
Celsius, which is recommended for proper operation of the system. Please
check the following website to identify a thermally advantaged chassis:

Additional thermal information is available at the following web sites:
