Sorry
The question I am trying to get answers to is this: Using stock cooling, what are other persons obtaining for their CPU temperatures. CPU temps vs. the MOBO temps vs. the room temp. I have been concerned since I built this rig that my temps are too high for a healthy CPU.
I placed a second fan (8cm) on top of the supplied CPU fan / heatsink and dropped the temps about 10 C idle, but the temps still reach around 61c while under a heavy load. The time for it to cool down has dropped, but still looking for better performance without OCing it.
I started on water cooling, but have been doing some experiments with some heat pipes and a heat lane on another computer and have gotten some interesting results(Have not blown the 2.4 800fsb CPU up yet).
Thank you for any assistance.
