Why i need a decent heatsink lmfao
 

Thats a thermaltake silentboost under there... it NEEDS cold air from that duct to keep me under like 50 degrees 0_0 and now that its winter, and im in Canada, we need the furnace on and theres a damn duct in front of my computer 0_0 so when its on i spike up to around 45 0_0

so you can see its not so much a matter of want as it is need and i decided id try my luck :P i regret buying this 30 dollar paper weight <_< its a piece of crap as soon as the temperature of ym room goes up... <_<

i used to be able to overclock to 2.6 stable... hell, i could go to 2.7... but now i cant make 2.4 stable <_< ive reseated, reapplied the AS5... many things... this damn thing SUCKS <_<

temperatures with a fan blowing cool air towards the side panel fin blowing into the duct are fine... but the case gets dusty... and i freeze to death :P (im in the basement :P so its cool anywhere but under the vent... and i have no room to move my computer somewhere else as im using all the electrical outlets :lol: I know, story of my life :P )

[edit] god i can draw the trouble with this thing on forever lmfao...

Also earned myself 4.9 foodstamps out of 5 in the post your ghetto mods thread on [H]ard|OCP Forums :P ive got a pic of the duct too but its not much lmfao, 3 sides cardboard, one side anti static bag ( so it can flex when i take off my side panel :P plus i can look inside :P )

cardboard mods make my day, they're dirt cheap and quite effective. So far you've got the winning entry ;) 11 days left.

mmmm, I would have been tempted to join, but after 3 months, still fighting to get my E6600 with it's boxed cooler, so no picture to show ^^

Id definetly check your airflow and your thermal paste application :P Thats a REALLY bad temp for that cooler... my friends X2 4200+ @ 2.6 and 1.45V is mid 40's load...

i really need this one bad.... temps rise

I feel bad discounting people but still.. if it can fix there problems i might as well :P

as with the other person i tried helping, check your TIM or thermal paste application. the 3200+ AM2 is a 62w part so that heatsink should be VERY capable... unless oyur overclocking which im assumignyou havent as you didnt mention it :P

Hope it helps :)

Also, dude with hyper 6+, if your fans are making that much noise, try dusting them. dust might be caught in the bearings :P and check your TIM/paste as well 0_0 55 is REALLY high with that cooler 0_0 airflow shouldnt be bad as your in a lian li :S oh wait your room temperature is 28 0_0 holy hell turn on the AC :P
