Default [INQ] E8400 Overheating
http://www.theinquirer.net/gb/inquir...reported-intel

Quote:
A HEAP of heat problems with Intel’s E8400 microprocessor are being reported on a host of hardware forums.

Users are claiming that the sensor diodes aren’t up to scratch and that’s causing the overclockers to get overheated themselves.

That’s not something Intel is admitting. A response from an Intel techie to a user over at OC Forums claims it has nothing to report on sensor problems but that just seems to be adding fuel to an already crackling blaze.

A search on Saint Google reveals there’s plenty of heated discussion raising people’s temperatures around the world. µ

I hope there really is a heat problem. This would give time for AMD to get their new chips out and then we'd have competition again which would mean lower prices

They're probably trying to OC with stock cooling

Hmmph.

First I've heard about this. I've been suggesting this chip to everyone too.

Odd. I hope this isn't true or is a problem that can be fixed easily, I really like this particular chip.

Are they overheating or just mis-reporting the temps?
