Ah, Beantech case, P4 3GHz, MSI 875p Neo etc....
I was happy
Still waiting for my Zalman 7000, so I used the stock HS with AS3.
According to the Bios, I had 58c idle!
reseat HS
56c idle!!!!
decided to carry on, maybe bios problem.
computer keeps resetting, realised crappy Q-Tec power supply (400w dual fan) actually only had 180w 3.3v+5v just like my old 300w generic supply!
I've now ordered a 480w antec.
My question (you knew I'd get there) could the heat problems have been down to the PSU?
And My case partially blocks the area where the dual fan sits on the antec, will this be ok? or do I have to take a Hacksaw to my beloved new case?
Thanks in advance guys
