My stock 2000+ w/ SK-7 and 40CFM fan is running at like 113°F :( It used to run mid - high 90's..

I need some more cooling.

I have an Enermax FS-710 (Antec 1030) w/ 2 80MM intakes and 20MM Exhaust. I don't think I could install more fans though unless I mod my case-side and in that case I don't know if the 330W Enermax PSU could handle that. Besides watercooling, is there any ideas to have my CPU run at like, at least below 105°F?

I don't like summer temps either :(:disgust::|

I want my temps from this winter when I left the heat off in my room and opened the window :D;)

Why worry? That kind of temp is NOT bad at all. Hell, it's what I typically get this time of year, although my computer is basically quiet. But those temps by no means are bad.

That really isnt something to worry about, but anyway...Are those temp increases only because of the weather? What are your current room temps? If the increase is soley because of the weather all you could do is get air conditioning.

mostly state temps in C. u know heh, i'm too lazy to do conversion and guesses are too inexact when a few deg difference is big for this kinda thing:p

40cfm? good lord that must be loud. i don't know how people without 40cfm survive summer eh? ;) ur fine:p

my xp 2000+ uses a coolermaster hcc-002 heatsink with a puny puny 60mm 12cfm stealth vantec fan. its a palomino too. last i checked normal 80mm fans take about 1.6w? not much. cut holes if u wish to be cooler. i have a 80mm side case fan over my cpu area, a 92mm side case fan over my video card area, a 92mm in the front bottom. all lowered to very low rpm using a fan bus.

try living in florida where not only is it hot as california year round, but its 80+% humidity as well... The lowest ive seen my rig run is 55C, with temps typically in the low 60's....
