Smile Cooling - Case and CPU Fan - Temperatures

Hi,

I've decided to set my Antec tri-cool case fans (two of them) to 'low' as it's much quieter.

I then used the 'Q-fan' utility that came with the mainboard, to put the CPU fan into 'silent mode', where, with the two case fans on low, and the CPU fan on 'silent', you can barely hear it!

Only thing is, I was concerned about overheating, but I want everything to run at a good temperature, but still be quiet. (Isn't that what we all want!?)

Would you people say these temperatures are good?

After the computer has been running for about an hour and a half:

Mainboard: 22-23C
CPU: 30 - 32C

The CPU fan is running at approx 2100 RPM.
It's a AMD Phemon 2 Dual core, running at 3.1GHz incase you need to know.

Thanks for any advice

Howard
