Hi guys
I have Pentium 4 2.8 GHz Northwood processor
My problem is that proccy is overheating, on idle it's 50 C and on load it goes over 80 C & I recently changed mobo
I think it's because voltage of core is always between 1.6 to 1.7 Is it normal?
Pls help
^^
No ways can the vCore be that high. Could you tell your full system specification, and post the first and mainboard tab of CPU-Z.
Take a look

core voltage normal. maybe bit high. its 130nm based P4. check the heatsink. it maybe faulty or fan not running at full speed or dust clogged its fins.
It's a local one of LOZU company
It has I915 series chipset

Well I guess you will not be able to lower vCore. Most you can do is to clean out the system. Remove the HSF, clean the surfaces (CPU/HSF) with Isopropyl Alcohol, apply good TIM, reseat the HSF.
Did you change the mobo yourself?
^^^ Nope my vendor done that
I'm going to keep this ancient computer for only next three months afterthat i will buy laptop when i take admission in college.
IIT result coming tomorow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! wish me luck guys.
Wish me luck for AIEEE also as i'm hoping better result in AIEEE.
Thanks asigh & sam.shab for helping.
