How's your temperature?

Post by PCFREE »

Hi all!

What's your average system temperature now that the weather is warmer? (In the UK, at least - it's around 13C outside)

I'm now averaging between 69 and 74C on auto with the stock fan. A few days ago when the temperature was around 5C, I was averaging around 59-64C

As someone has mentioned before, I wonder how accurate the system is?

Well the weather ain't warmer in Canada. The Kronos temp with the fan on auto seems to be consistently 66C but goes above 70 on slow. Since processor chips are usually rated at 75C I think I'll stay on Auto.

Currently sat in the middle of a show in a UK theatre pit on a two show day. It's been between 56-58 everytime I've looked.

If you can tell me what the temperature is when you're not looking, I'll be really impressed! :D
Thanks for sharing! :-)

:D I just meant it doesn't seem to be varying much between when the keyboards sat idle or being played.

I'm in Florida, and it's very mild here. "Winter" here still has the occasional hot day outside, and it gets warm inside as well. I haven't seen my Kronos rise above 67 after being on for hours.

OS3 fan control is a great feature! Funny how on bootup (which is way quicker now as well!), the fan is at full speed until the Kronos loads the screen. The noise floor of the Kronos now sits below my Fusion 88's hard drive hum and desktop PC tower's quiet fan. Too bad there's no OS upgrade to lower the volume of the constant background ringing in my ears...
