Mac pro 5.1 Problems after change CPU 's

[evert]

Hi,

This is my first post on this forum - so saying Hello to everyone!

I had Mac Pro 5.1 2010 with 2x quad 2.4Ghz Xeon E5620. Two days ago I put SSD 500Gb, transfer system on it - all works great.

Yesterday i mount new CPUS 2 x 6 core 2.66Ghz Xeon X5650. First I had troubleshouting while turning on - i must shout down computer i change mounting of ram 4 times. Restart several times - ok after 1 hour all works. But computer is restarting and giving panic error every 1-2 hour. I cant do Apple hardware test because I dont have CD (D / Option+D during system start doesnt work) I do memtest - all is correct. Only things i have are reports. I also take of Ram - leave only 4GB - same situation. Please help me because I dont know where is a problem, maybe CPU is demaged ? What I should do? Thank you for all help!

Regards

Hello and welcome!

Check here for your Hardware Test file.

At it says on the description:
Download the AHT for your computer model and use the contents to restore the /System/Library/CoreServices/.diagnostics folder, then reboot while holding d to start the diagnostic tools.

So after you download the .dmg file, mount it and make hidden files visible on Finder. Then Copy/Paste the contents of the folder you will see inside CoreServices folder of the .dmg to the same folder on your OS. Hide again the hidden files and restart.

Good luck!

Have you tried swapping the CPUs in each other's socket ?

 

[h9826790]

From your description, possible CPU related.

The very 1st thing I will do is to remove the CPU, and carefully check if the socket was damaged or not. Get a magnifying glass and check all the pins, hopefully they are not bended.

I downloaded files and run HTF! The score is = no problems found. I did expanded test. But thank you for help.

No - yet. but maybe first i should download new El capital ??

You can try el cap but I doubt it'll make a difference

 

[1970mgbgt]

I don't know much about this, but is the OP's problem what overheating would look like, say if the thermal paste job didn't take?

 

[RAMtheSSD]

The machine is running for an hour then the processors are almost certainly ok but I will differ to the greater knowledge of H9826790 and say check the sockets as well as the processors (blow out the sockets just in case anything got stuck in there). That being said, since you are going to be doing this anyway, redo the thermal paste (like 1970mgbgt says) after really cleaning both surfaces. There are a number of products out there specifically for this but I have used a large number of alcohol pads (lint free and fairly quick drying) tossing one as soon as it gets dirty with success.

My original two cents would be this: if you got lidless processors then you are golden but if you did not, are the washers too thick? The problem of tightening the heat sinks is insane making! Too little and your processors can fry because there is no heat dissipation; too much and you have an air hockey puck. I've been planning that switch for years (5690s are still very pricey) and the washers seem to be the make or break factor though I can't tell you if they would be the same thickness for all 5600 series processors (why they would vary I don't know but all I know in so far as the washers is that I do not know if they vary)

I doubt that switching to El Cap will do you any good as the 5,1 supports the 5600 series natively and this is a hardware problem anyway. If anything, given my present experience, it will just add a layer of complication. I would try and install SMC fan control during that stable time and crank the fans up and see if that extends the stable time. Are all your fans working? What is ambient temp? How much hotter than ambient is the exhaust?

 

[1970mgbgt]

OP says he started with a 5,1, if I understood him correctly. Since I'm about to undertake the same upgrade on my 5,1, it is my understanding that the Washer Issue is only relevant to the 4,1 > 5,1 upgrade. I could be wrong. There is a user named Amethyst who has done it on a 4,1, and she bought aluminum washers from her local hardware. From my reading on these fora (trying to fill my head with as much info as possible beforehand), it seems the consensus for washer thickness is something like 2-2.4mmm and for them to NOT be plastic.

The SMC Fan Control experiment might be definitive as to possible overheating, without taking the whole shebang apart.

You are correct the 4,1 are lidless processors the 5,1 came with a real socket that took standard processors with the lid on them. But the OPs original post had in it re-seating the ram many times describes what happened when I did dual 4,1 upgrade and did not have the heatsinks tighten down enough. It would seem to me to be worth a try even though the retention clip on the socket should be holding the cpus in tight. Even a general check in that area for proper seating of everything may solve it.

 

[evert]

I am sorry I haven't written for so long

Yes - this is truth I have MAC PRO 5,1 so I have IHS on stock Cpus - so the height are the same with the hexa cpus (i think)

I changed the CPUs, mounted old Quads 2,4. All works great. Referring to the previous question - temperatures were correct.

Probably, one of cpus is demaged. But I don't know which!

 

[ActionableMango]

Probably, one of cpus is demaged. But I don't know which!

I believe you can run a dual CPU MP with one CPU. That's what others have done to troubleshoot if one CPU or the other is bad. Just run one for a while, then switch to the other.

 

[evert]

But. There was a time when it run one hour without troubleshoot. Can I run it so long ?

 

[h9826790]

Yes, but the fan will be running at full speed. The fan noise will be very annoying. However, they should able to run at that speed for a very long time.

And is it really completely random? Even though running stress test / benchmark won't be easier to trigger the error?

I don't know. I think that probably more often running cpus process - but one time he passed full test (1hour 30 minutes on 100% usage) Sometimes restarting when i was watching film, sometimes every quarter, one time it works for 9 hours with no problems!. But average was 30 minutes.

Yes I'd try one CPU at a time. Run something that taxes the system and loops endlessly, like a benchmark. It sounds like you'll know within a day or two if there's a problem.

I would also, if possible, do this while using a spare drive with a fresh install of OS X on it. This will eliminate the possibility of any software issues or custom configuration from being the problem.

Okey, I have already new SSD drive są this is not a problem. I can install El Capitain.

But if the stock cpus works great I think it shouldn't be a software problem, should be?

Fair point, yes! I missed the part where you put the original CPUs back in. That also means the sockets are probably fine. Everything is pointing to one or both of the new CPUs at the moment.
