Isn't 33 degree's Celsius really good for a CPU?

I just built my new Opteron Rig today and isn't 33 degrees cool?

32-36degrees celsius Idle is the average at stock vcore.

Yeah, that's pretty good. My 3200+ Venice hit a record of 18C once when it was running @ 1000mhz with 1.1V Vcore.

So your home is kept below 64.4F?

Very good. My CPU is 35C stock with Zalman 7700AlCu.

Note: that's at idle.

Yea stock HS/F with some Artic Silver 5 Thermal Compound. Now I'm just glad I didn't waist $50 on a new HS/F. Those Opterons really do stay cool. I love my Opteron and headsup I will be posting **PICS** of my new Computer tommorow.

Actually in the Jan 06 MaximumPC Issue... what thermal paste you use doesn't make a huge difference. I think it was like 1-2c if I'm not mistaken.

It was about 54F at the time. My dad's cheap and sets the heating to 45F when we're not home
