Greetings OC gurus,
I recently assembled a new system, first shot at truly doing it myself. I have an Antec Lanboy case, barton 2500, vantec aeroflow cooling said processor, and two of the led antec system fans cooling this system. When all was said and done, I had an ungodly processor temperature. I had to actually UNDERCLOCK it to keep it from going over 50 deg celcius. I've heard the aeroflow was a good hsf (at least better than stock), but this high temperature's got to go. If it's just a bad heatsink from you all's experience I'd like to know. These are my other suspicions:
a) I placed a slot fan under my video card to suck air out back
b) When installing the aeroflow, I think I may have used a bit too much as3
c) the antec led fans just aren't pushing enough air
I'm sure you all can help me pinpoint a solution better, and I'll give any more information required, I hope I got the essentials at least. Thank you all in advance.
