Please Help!"},"content":{"rendered":"<p>Hello I have a dell precision T3500 with Bios A13 (Updated from A07) and I&#8217;ve seen other people who say their t3500&#8217;s idle at like 30-40c and 60c under load with the 130tdp (i think) cooler. the bigger one. well i have the bigger one available on my Xeon W3530 and it IDLES at a HUGE 78c and when it gets to about 13% usage on the CPU it gets to like 90c for no reason, I&#8217;ve used HWmonitor, NZXT CAM, Speed fan, and a few others. And they all report the same temps. the cooler on the CPU is passive cooled with no fan directly attached and i was wondering if i can add a aftermarket cooler to it? is the socket a standard 1366? i wanted to grab a Noctua cooler or something but I&#8217;m worried the socket isn&#8217;t standard mounting and the cooler will be too big. I&#8217;ve checked and replaced the thermal paste with no change in temp. When it hits 80c the fans rev up and get really loud and it&#8217;s annoying. Is there a TEMP readout in the bios? I&#8217;m really confused about these temps.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: gray; font-size: small;\">If you can&#8217;t play youtube (320p) on newer computers, then you know you got ripped off<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"iawp_total_views":88},"question-category":[44],"question_tags":[],"class_list":["post-14566","question","type-question","status-publish","hentry","question-category-cpus"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question\/14566","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/question"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=14566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=14566"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"question-category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question-category?post=14566"},{"taxonomy":"question_tags","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/computing.net\/answers\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/question_tags?post=14566"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
