Currently, in a room with an ambient temperature in the mid 70's (24C), here's the temps I'm getting:
System: 31C
CPU: 35C idle (Sempron @ 2.45Ghz with 1.5v)
HD1: 32C
HD2: 33C
The temps are all fine, and the OC'ed Sempron doesn't hit 50C even with more voltage at 2.5Ghz. I recently added the CM 120mm fan in the front after seeing what others have done with their C5 cases, and it helped lower the case temperature 2-3C.
But with the hot summer temps approaching, I'm wondering if the case temperature could be slightly improved.
Would adding a 80mm fan on the Centurion side panel help, and if so, would it be better for it to be intake or exhaust?
