i thinnk its cheap for a reason.... prob wont last and be noisey as hell

in principle if you can get a good quite one that sucks air from outside case and blows it over grphics card i would say it would be good.

JLV2k5 · 02-11-2008, 06:52 PM

Yeah, I am more concerned with my cpu temps though. I think more air flow would be good in general.

Thanks for the tip

wont help your cpu, might help your graphics and case temp tho

Thanks. What can I do about my core temps besides replacing the CPU heatsike and fan? I dont really want to deal with that hassle, nor do I want to spend like $70 getting a Zalman or something like that.

get a couple of fans on the front of your case sucking in air and get a couple on rear blowing air out-just create a constant flow of fresh air through your case....

Thank you. I am not sure how I can add fans willy nilly but I am gunna open her up and look at things later on.

the best decision to have opened corps in summer,winter etc.

If your core temps are 80 C as you say, then your heatsink isnt installed properly, and if it is, contact the poeple you bought it form saying the heatsink is screwed and you want a new one ! Addind more case fans may help, but it wont get them to a safe temperature

funkysnair · 02-11-2008, 08:29 PM

80oC!!!

thats not posted in this thread-thats a bit different lol..

yeh you might need to get that sorted... maybe the thermal paste isnt making a good enough contact between the cpu and heatsink-

but it is always an advantage having free flowing air through your case, think you wanna check you cpu cooling first
