With loads and lots of love . finally managed to get my new PC ready. E6750 ASUS P5KC Corsair Value Set 2GB Seagate 500GB XFX 8800 GTS 320 MB CMP 600W Made a mistake buying Zebronics Antibiotic.

Any better ideas ... Thanx to punjab humano kelvin in particular... please need a reply soon Posted on : 23-10-2007 02:00 PM RBK Profile Joined : March 2005 Posts : 12 Re : Need Cooling Solution. Report this as offensive post You'll have a tough time keeping the temperature below 40?C under load with air cooling. I wouldn't bother with after-market cooling if you are not overclocking and if your temperatures are within 55?C with your workload. You could try adding some intake and exhaust fans on the cabinet. It's hard to suggest anything without more details...Are you overclocking? Do you run any CPU intensive applications? And how hot does it get?

Report this as offensive post Not 1 mistake, 2 in total. 1. Why Asus P5K-C?? Its crappy mobo, Abit P35 mobos r rocking, nothing can beat them @price they r selling. 2. Why 8800GTS 320MB, HD2900PRO is better than this. 40C is totally amazing, I think U r kidding with us. I also have E6750 + XFX 650i, its idles @39C idle and 55C on load, using Arctic freezer cooler. 40C on stock cooler are too good. Nothing to worry, E6750 can handle temps upto 71.6C, nothing to panic.

The 2900 Pro is not yet available and I doubt it will be the same price as an 8800GTS 320MB. You're comparing a future card with one that is available now. OP, Did you take the BIOS temperature readings after a cold boot? It takes some time for the temperature to stabilize. Give it at least half an hour or try restarting the PC after use and check the BIOS readings. If your BIOS and software readings match, try to find the CPU temperature under load using something like prime95. http://www.mersenne.org/freesoft.htm All software monitoring programs use the same PLL or on die sensor to access temperature data, so they are all equally fallible. However some of them might have better support for your hardware. Just check if the software you are using has any issues with your board. It is not uncommon to see temperature values being skewed due to incorrect calibration. If you are still having problems, check your motherboiard driver CD or download Asus PC probe. http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=P5KC What exactly is this "MB" reading you refer to and what on earth did you mean by "fins acting as intake and exhaust"?
