newb temperature question on load

I just upgrade to i7 920, removed stock fan andput in a Xigmatek Dark knight. OCed to 3.4Ghz. Idle is around 32-35. My load temps are around 60C on all cores +/- 2C. Is this normal?

Pre-face

What started all this was me hurting for some more disk space.Let me tell what I've done-I've run Disk Cleanup,Uninstalled apps and programs,Analyzed Disk Space,Reduced System Restore,Cleared Update Cache,Deleted/Disabled Hibernation and lastly Deleted Delivery
Optimization Files.

Also I didn't touch the registry because I saw some reports and they scared me.If anyone has any other ideas about stuff/maintenance I could do to the computer tell me.

I have a couple of questions

How do I completely uninstall a program safely?

Are there any utility programs I should be using?(I've heard mostly bad things and the ones I'm talking about are both software/hardware updaters and PcCleaners programs)

Are there any safe ways to do what cleaning programs do myself?

As for the directx end-user runtimes I still can't find anything that would work.I looked at the c:\windows\microsoft.net\framework its there thanks for that.Now I'm all good
save for directx end-user runtimes I did try google found only links to it.

 

Yes, yes it is. How much voltage are you running?

 

I'm using this evga eleet app, it says CPU VCORE hovers around 1.21 and 1.22. There are a bunch of other voltage measurements too, but I don't know what they are.

 

Your vCore should be the voltages to your cpu. It looks good man, is your chip a D0? Sounds like you got a good one! *Toast :toast:

 

yeah thats actually pretty cool for i7

 

D0 stepping? I think its enabled? should it be off?

 

a stepping isn't an option... its the version of your Intel Processor...

^ read that *Toast :toast:

 

Yea, eleet reads it as D0. I assume that the latest revision? On the box, there something that says Ver. E then a bunch of numbers following it

 

I might have misread the cpu temps. I didnt realize eleet shows temp for "CPU", and it shows temp for "CPU Core 1, 2, 3, 4". The core temps all peak about 60C at load. The CPU temp shows 45C at load. Does that mean, my CPU temp is actually 45C, not 60C? Which one am I suppose to focus on?

 

In my opinion you shouls watch the cores, the other temps is most likely the CPU socket temperature.

Either way you are god to go, I have seen i7's run in the 90's*Smile

 

your doing better then me on a e7300 with a dark knight *Big Grin

 

They run fairly warm the i7's. I dont think it will be long and I will have me a w/c loop *Stick Out Tongue

 

Room temps?
