using a scythe ninja. idle temps at around 39c.

Running prime 95, temp jumps to 68c!!!! :0

Stock voltage. Chip is oc'd to 3.2 ghz with 400bus speed.

Think I should remount the scythe??? Temps seem very high to me, what do you guys think?.

Any advice? Running them in a rocketfish case with the oem lianli fans that came with the case....

okey, first off a senior member like you should know the right section to post this question in.

Dont make another in case and cooling, let mark move it when he signs on.


First off take off the side pannel and run prime again and see if that changes anything. If it doesnt, then proceed to step two.


Now it would really help if we had more information. What is your ambient temps? If you dont know find a thermometer. the kind you put in your mouth and say AHHHH.

Then put it in front of a intake vent. See what temperature air is.

Now That is your ambient temperature. That number your gonna jot down as a base.
After you do that put the thermometer in front of your intake on your sythe ninja. BECAREFUL NOT TO BREAK IT on the fan. Record temp here and post.
