AMD Athlon 4200+ Dual Core X2 64: Processor Fan Noise, Speed & Temperature Range Inquiry

My Procek processor it's Athlon 4200+ dual core x2 64. The problem is incredibly loud windmill fan on the heat sink. Fan Fan I greased, cleaned. I changed the paste yesterday, it's ok, the temperature has dropped a bit, but the speed at computer startup is 2900 at 35-36 degrees. Then it is only worse and often reaches 4000 and so I have a small airport at home ... Anyone know what temperatures for this processor are ok?

I immediately say that it is not the fault fan fan or paste because fan fan can go work quiet and currently I have 2064 turns, so it's quiet. Only thanks to the fact that in the Everest program I click on the computer at startup -> sensor. And then it's ok, I can work in peace. But it is enough to restart the computer and there is an airport ... Anyone has any idea why my computer forces high speed so strongly windmill fan ? And at 47-48 degrees, so in my opinion quite ok.

https://obrazki.elektroda.pl/2613110500_1492857969.png - the airport

- under the OCCT load and the Everest revs program enabled

- airport, after restarting the computer and running speedfan after the OCCT test.

Please help.

I have improved the post. There is a slight difference between the fan and fan, please see:

I would also like to ask you to use Polish letters in all words, not just selected words. At the Forum, we try to care for spelling. I have corrected the current shortage of petioles.

Little is known about a computer colleague, the board model can be taken from the OCCT dump, so the first question - what are the BIOS settings for cooling operation?



It is about CPU Smart Fan Control and CPU Smart Fan mode.
Of course, the first should be on Enabled, and the second - depending on your cooling, which you do not know about. It is probably some small and loud cooling judging by the fact that at full speed it exceeds 4k RPM. Theoretically, Mode should set itself to AUTO and count on the fact that the BIOS from the machine will select the correct mode of operation. Theoretically, this mode should be set to Voltage for a three-wire fan, and PWM for a four-wire fan. Instead of the AUTO mode, if you have a fan with four wires, I suggest checking the behavior in turn on PWM, if it is wrong with Voltage, and in the case of a fan with three wires, I suggest checking the Voltage setting.

It may also turn out that the hob does not like to set such low revolutions that a friend would like to have (or rather the fan with the current control from the plate is not able to go down so low), here at a friend's place I would simply buy a cooler with a smaller and quieter fan. Recently, I bought a used SilentiumPC Spartan PRO for a friend for PLN 40 (a new one costs 2x this much), because its board had a defective speed control. Compared to the original low cooling Spartan at full speed was barely audible.

In the bios I have:

What to change?

It was quiet at first, the paste has dried up during these few years, but today I replaced it with arctic mx-4 and it is better when it comes to temperature. But still at 41-43 degrees the system gives it 3.5k turns, only after firing Everest it changes to 1957 and it's good.

I just wrote what you can check. Exactly in the post above.

I checked on Voltage but it's the same. So maybe I will ask differently: is the temperature for this processor at rest 45-46 and 57 at 100% load is ok or too much? You can see the charm of this processor with age, Ultimately, I could spend a few zlotys and buy a new fan for the heat sink, but can I buy the fan alone? And what do you recommend?

This fan has a 3 or 4 pin power connector?

Temperatures can be.

As for changing the fan, if you change to something quieter and the temperatures will rise - and now they are not terribly low - unless you replace the whole cooler.

3 pin.

I guess the processor's years are doing its job, it's 10 years old. Some sample cheap fan could someone recommend? I will not be in an old computer, I don't know how much he invested, but something up to PLN 20-25?

Ask, maybe for 20 PLN sale:

the fan itself will not get? because the heat sink works well, it's warm

I know it's 2x over budget, but maybe it's worth putting something like this:

Or try to bid cheaper:

The radiator from BOX cooling is small, so it has problems with the dissipation of more heat, which is why the hob increases the speed on the fan control. It is worth exchanging for some cooling having a slightly more massive heat sink and a larger, low-speed fan.

Replacement of cooling as they write above for some "quieter" - and - and whether there are any enclosure fans in the enclosure - at least one extracting air - usually their presence / absence / has a big impact on the CPU fan speed

@ R103 More important is pushing air unless you want to have a land of dust inside the case.

I understand. For now, however, I will fold, because I am old and I don't want to invest in it, thermal paste for PLN 27 was already a lot, because it's a 10-year-old computer Just write to me, do you know what the maximum temperatures are for my Prock? Because the fan will mute by reducing the revolutions through the Everest program and it is quiet at 2k revolutions.

Do not exceed 60-65 degrees under stress.

at 2k turns it is quiet.

You must be deaf

I do not know, nor do I know your processor version, because there were a few about this designation. I would assume that up to 55-60 degrees on cores would be reasonably safe.

An investment in cooling is not money thrown away. If you buy complete with clips for AMD and Intel, then you will transfer them to the next computer.

No seriously it is quiet, some noise can be heard but minimal.

even under the occt at 100% load reaches 57 degrees so I think it is good, the paste exchanged gave a lot. Thanks for the help.
