Bear in mind that CPU is pulling 168W at that voltage/clock

Nice low temps Will. What speed is the fan(s) running at?

Full wack :) push and pull with Artica Cooling MX-3 paste :thumb:

800-1200rpm on a 120mm fan is quiet, no?

My fans run at that speed and its practically background noise.

my current cooler sounds like a jumbo.. till i get my 'other' cooler fitted im stuck with a spire thermax2 @ fullwhack!!

[wonderlust]

its not the motor that makes the noise its the air though the fins.

My TRUE/Nexus 120pwm is silent at 500RPM but very noisey at full speed

why will =s fail :D

its 1c outside, your pc is on the window ledge with it wide open :kungfu:

you mugen looks like its made from the off cuts of nice looking coolers :lol:

your only running blend not small to heat the cpu :thumb:

erm...erm...something else i cant think of right now :P

they do look like good temps tho m8, it was on a night like this i got my 4300 to 3.6ghz under a freezer pro but with anything like normal ambient it would run of fcrying at 3.5ghz :D

What temperatures does Coretemp give you?

[topdog]

Maybe you should try a Prolimatech megahalems
Ambient is 13 c, Single Akasa Apache 120 mm fan in a Coolermaster HAF 932 case

What was ambient when at load, will? If it was 37 degrees, thats impressive. If it was -10, thats crap. :lol:

man that cooler looks nasty! makes my TRUE black look like a dainty ballarina

I usually take ambient as being my hard drive temperature as that's right in front of the front 120mm fan. So its about 20C

Edit: Just checked and the ambient was actually 20C :)

My cooler actually works ;) and probably cost less :p


What temperatures does Coretemp give you?

All temperature programs are the same. Speed fan and Coretemps both give me exactly the same as AMD OVERDRIVE.

This doesn't show anything :lol:

Both of our coolers are +6C above ambient and your probably cost £10 more :p and your HT link is running slower; thinking about it, why is it only running at 1.8GHz stock?

Mine works very well thank you very much! :P

It only cost me £28 delivered aswell :)

Wow how come it was so cheap?

[Iaink]

second hand FTW :) got a couple of thermaltake fans free two from someone else, but one was not balanced properly so was REALLY loud, chopped that up into a tunnely thing which can apparently reduce temps dramatically
