first .. 2500+ oc'ed to 3200+
slk-800A + Panaflo L1A 80mm
Antec Sonata
the last few months, since spring, my idle temps are around 50 and load 54 for cpu and 32C case.
this happened before and i replaced the AS3. Then it was ok for a bit and then got hight again. This was fine for the fall and part of spring because my room was colder.
Last week, i replaced the AS3 and the temps didn't change. I went out and bought some AS5 and the temps dropped 1 degree or so, but nothing good. I know the break in time is needed but i don't see myself getting back down to the 40, 42 idle / 48 load days.
-- i know the heatsink is properly applied because i've done it jillions of times and the heatsink is warm to the touch.
is it time for a faster fan for the summer?
