I have the kingwin mutant x case with the side window.. so far the case is flawless and looks great but my question is i have two exhaust fans 34 cfm and a side fan 32 cfm and also a front intake.. plus the 2 psu on my ultra x connect.. and my 92mmpanaflo on the hsf xp-90 now in mbm it says my ambient temp is like 16c which isnt bad but i was wondering if at 2.6 at 1.52 voltage and my memory at 260 is 52c at complete load good?? im still trying to figure out if this acceptable.. i idle around 35 most of the time and max out at 52 after playing hl2 for a few hours or cs:s.... thanks

Ok, first things first - please, please, please structure posts a bit better than that. It's really hard to work out what you're saying.

Anyway, your temps are fine. For any cpu you don't need to worry about temps until they start to reach 70/80+. Vid cards even higher nowadays. Many people worry about their comp temps, and don't realise that in 99% of cases, if your computer is running fine (no crashes / shut downs / corruption), then your temps are fine.

On another note, MBM can be unreliable for temperatures anyway (actually, I should say that the BIOS can be unreliable, which is where MBM gets its temps from). I've found that usually you're better off with a fan controller's temps for greater accuracy. Anyway, getting side tracked....

That's no excuse. IF you don't have the time to make the post coherent, then wait until you do before posting. OR take the time and delay heading out. Otherwise, most people will read what you wrote, scratch their heads (or nether regions) and move on to a thread that they won't strain themselves trying to understand your ramblings.

How about either editing the post that started the thread, or make a new post here clarifying what you're trying to say/ask... Otherwise, you're just being a typical lazy person and you're not worth the time it takes us to answer you.
