hey,

i have recently set my FSB back to 128 because the computer seemed un stable before at the normal 133. anyway...

my cpu is 47 C
chassis 36 C
and my core volatge is 1.74v

this seems quite hot for my cpu seeing as i have a volcano 7+ HSF and it is under clocked!

what do you think - does it need to be cooler and how can i make it cooler?

im also running with a 500w PSU and an enermex adjustable system fan which is at full

thanks

jonny

thats not really _HOT_. Its OK lets just say. check to make sure that you have proper air circulation in your case. is that temp LOAD or IDLE? try taking off the heatsink, and putting some AS3 on it and then letting it sit for a while.
good luck

If those are your load temps i would not be worried. If you wanted to lower your temps, i would suggest improving case flow or turning down the ac.
