cooling probs
hi all
im trying to cool my pc better without having to by a new case if i can help it. currently coolermaster elite335.
i have just replaced the stock heatsink to my phenomIIx4 965 as it was tooooo loud. im using an arctic freezer 7 pro rev2. i know that arctic silver has a 200 hr burn in period but my temps r a tad high really. idle around 44c and load its been as high as 61c. i know this isnt mega high but ive read that the max safe temp is 62c.
my system temp is around 41c. it was 29c b4 i upgraded my cpu.
these r the fan headers on my mobo and fans running.
syst fan 1 = 4pin header with 3pin front intake fan conected
syst fan 2 =3pin header with 3pin rear exsaust fan
power fan =3pin header with no fan.
if i was to conected my intake fan to power fan header would it run at 100% all the time or is it the same as the others monitored by mobo?
sorry if i seem lazy for not just trying but im proppa sick of havin to move my case lol
i know my temps arent proppa high but i play bfbc2 online and and cant play for to long b4 my cpu temp is at 60c
any ideas folks? any help is much apreciated.. thanks in advance
