Hi everyone. I want to cool my AMD T-Bird 1Ghz AXIA "Y" so that I can O/C it. Right now its idle at 52C and load at 55C which is just friggin horrible. I said to myself, oh well, lets just buy a Volcano 7+ and get it over with. Then i rethought and said, what good will an HSF do if the air inside the case is hot itself? This got me into a whole new category of case cooling. I have some generic case and i put the ususal intake in front bottom and exhaust at back..But its way too hot. As the computer is on, i stick my hand in and see where the air reaches and i see that there are a few plces where it doesn't. Look at pic. I am not sure what to do. I dont know whether to put a blowhole at the top of case, or at side blowing RIGHT on cpu....can neone help?
The purple spots are where it is hotter than other places...
