Alright so all the parts for my new i7 build came in today.
Keep in mind this is only with the top 240 MM fan and the cpu fan going. The case is sitting open and the ambient temp is about 25C
I setup the case as barebones as possible to test it and here are my results:
Using asus probe 2 i get the following
Vcore= 0.95V
+3.3V= 3.30V
+5V= 5.09V
+12V= 12.08V
CPU temp = 51C idle (this jumps around quiet a bit, sometimes it'll jump up to 60 then back down to 51)
MB temp = 51C idle
CPU fan speed 1555RPM
Real temp temps as follows
Average of 34-37C Idle (These temps seem more accurate but i know i should usually go with Board software temps first.
Speed fan shows similar temps to asus probe 2
I used a single large blob of Artic 5 in the middle of the cpu then spread it with a credit card. I did the same with the Heat sync block. As far as i can tell the heat sync is applied properly.
If you think hooking up the other fans and closing the case will help my temps then please let me know and i'll try that.
