Thermalrite AX-7 rocks!

[LOAF]

Just a quick plug here

I replaced my Power Cooler 60mm CPU HSF on my XP 2200+ with a Thermalrite AX-7 and Panaflow 80mm fan and my temps dropped about 11-12C! On top of the heat reduction, that annoying "hair dryer" sound from the old HSF is gone too. Needless to say, I'm very happy with the setup and recommend it to anyone else.

I'm done now. Have a great Friday.

what are your temperaturs readings nows?

 

[LOAF]

It was at 57-65 before.
And now it's around 45 - 55 depending on load.

i have XP 2100+ running as XP 2200+ @ 52 idle and ~60C under load...but if i run it at the default speed, i get 48-55C

with AX-7, Sunon 40cfm 80mm, and ASIII

gonna try to unlock it soon and reapply the ASIII, because i know i didn't apply it right (still new to me and somewhat troubling)

Good luck with unlocking it. Personally, I wouldn't want to try that, 'cause I can't afford a new CPU if I fry mine.

i love my ax-7 as well, my duron 1.3 is at 35c right now.

crap, i just spend 50 bucks on a swifty and my 1600xp is at 53 idle. sucks.

it's got a 32cfm fan on it right now. is this normal?

doesn't sound normal, I got a mcxc370 with a thermal take 60mm quiet fan on it and my 1700+ runs around 44c-48c. Did you apply thermal compound?
