Cooling Softwares for CPU : Does it really work?

Kinsa na ang nakasuway ug gamit aning mga softwares? tinuod ba na makaubos sila ug processor temperature?

naa naman built in sa bios. but if you're overclocking they can become a hindrance.

Nope, the only software driver that actually work was the patch that nvidia released for nF2 motherboards.

if you have an amd proc with cool n quiet, it has a function that halves its clock cycle (and as an effect decrease heat) when not in duty cycle.

as far as "software-only" solution i dont think it works that well, the technology must be supported by the hardware (proc and or mobo) to work that well.

.. i think i tried one 'cpu-idle' man tingali to ang name. i tried it on a northwood p4, no significant benefit.(3 years ago)

dili diay jud sya mowork? abi nako sayop ra ako method. also tried cpu-idle pero murag wala jud syay effect. tried "rain" and "waterfalls" pero win 98 ra man ilang gisupport. sayang, abi nako ok to sila.

I've tried installing "nForce2 C0/C1/C2 Cooling Patch by The NGO Group" on my Epox 8RDA3G mobo, it worked as its said, but mine decreases CPU and chipset temps by 2-3 degrees. After 3 months, namurot ang capacitors sa akong motherboard and cge na og hang-up. I suspected it was the cooling patch thats responsible for the damage. I never tried it again./

aw, batia pod diay ang effect for just 3 degrees temperature change.

get the hardware...
