Heat, Computers, BAD

[Sibanac]

well i switched a few extra fans on in this heat (2 at the back and big 12cm behind disks) result :


room : 35°C
case : 42°C
idle cpu : 45°C
load cpu : 55°C


who said athlons run hot (2000xp slightly clocked on FSB)

I think its the graphics card that's overheating because my FPS and Ping are ok but it starts to get jerky after a while.

Willier, I dont have filters fitted but I usually open up my case and give it s good blast of compressed air at least once a month. I have 2 fans on my PSU as well.

Yep I got mixed up between posts, does the card have ram sinks or a PCI slot fan near it?

Unless you are living in a colder country I dont see how your system temperature is running cooler than ambient using only fans. This is not possible.

/edit heh just checked your sig - Iceland - that explains it

Actually, it is possible with a well setup case and fans. It's running at 24° degrees celsius now. And it has nothing to do with where I live

Observed at Reykjavik, Iceland
Temperature 59 °F / 15 °C


try running cooling your pc with air that has a nice 35C and see if it still is at 25C

even if heat sinks and fans were 100% efficient at removing heat, witch they ain't, the CPU temp would just sit at ambient temp...
