my precious.... :D
Cpu: palomino xp2000+ @ stock
Cooler: artic cooling CU rev2.0.
Case: 2x80mm Adda, 1x80mm papst, 2x80mm titan blue led at 5v, 1x80mm chieftec case-side fan.
mb either: 30-31c
cpu idle: 33-36c (on those rare occations)
cpu load: ~57c (while converting video. over 61 with burn but I chickened out as it kept rising.)
ok so I used to have a Noisecontrol Silverado but I thought it was becoming a bit hot @ silent speeds so I bought a artic cooling very cheap.
The main reason the silverado wasnt performing very well was because it was filled with dust. BIG TIME. After having wrecked a motherboard uninstalling a cooler I played it safe and the artic cooling is thus still in the comp. Ordered a Thermalright SLK-947u which should arrive on tuesday.
As the Papst 92mm fans are expensive and I have a fanregulator what other fans do you recommend? 80mm instead of 92mm? Im a silentfreak who likes colours
