Well, its OC'ed and those Shuttle cases aren't exactly designed for that purpose. They're designed to be small and quiet. Do you really need to OC a 2500+?

donno..
don't remember my last non-overclocked system :)

I redid the wiring inside the case my cpu temp didn't change

hovers around 45-47 normal use and 52 when running prim95

case temp however are now 39 idle and 44 loaded

:)

I encode video occasionally and it helps.

Did a little test

Ran Prim95 with 2500+ setting and cpu temp was 48-49c

Ran Prim95 with 3200+ settting and cpu temp was 51-52c

A WHOPPING 3c difference...I guess the heatpipe is pretty good at dissipating heat

And case temp went up 1c
