Who has the lowest cpu/case temps on an Epox 8k7a?

[Darkluck]

This is for fun. I'd like to see who's got the lowest temps. Make sure to include your HSF model/maker; CPU maker and speed; your casefan model/maker and speed; and your temps (in C please).

Swiftech 462A on 1.2 Tbird 266 FSB
3x Sunon KD1208PTB2 (one intake, two exhaust) 39CFM

34C case temp
41C cpu temp

of course this would depend on where you live and how cool your ambient temp is. The key to seeing effectiveness of HSF would be comparing case temp against cpu temp.

I have Volcano 2 on 1.2 Tbird, right now it's very cool outside, so my case temp's 22c, CPU temps 38c. a difference of 16c isn't that good compared to your 7c. but with my 5 Top Motors (3 intake, 2 exhaust, 28CFM and 34CFM ) blowing Antec SX830, it's pretty breezy.

as per Gundam's suggestion, please post your ambient temperature as well 26-32C (80-90F depending on the time of the day), when I took the readings I believe it was 27C or 28C.

actually I started a thread like this, but not just limited to 8K7A. http://forums.anandtech.com/messageview.cfm?catid=37&threadid=473389

but of course 8k7a temp comparisons are more meaningful when taken as a group.

My room is usually above average in temp around 75-80F. This sucks, but I can't leave the A/C on all the time.

Lian Li PC60 (stock fans 2 60mm intake, 1 60mm out)
Athlon 1.33 (was overclocked at 1503, but brought it down because of high room temp)
Taisol 7600092 w/ Delta 30cfm
Arctic Silver II (but I think the layer was a bit thick, because there was no change in temp after putting it on)

60F room
26C/40C 46C Load

75F room
29C/44C 51C Load

These are approximations because I'm at work, not at home.
