What fan are you using to exhaust the hot air? The DOrb1 is all aluminum & with a really slow fan you just can't expect much from it.dmlow said:I am getting near 50 degrees celsius with a dragon orb 1 4900rpm fan and a 92 mm case fan. My case is roomy and fan can "breathe" well. Why is it still so high?
dmlow said:I am not spending that freaking much on a HSF! Another OC site said the D-Orb actually beat the MC70 in their tests so I may switch to the 7000 rpm one they used. As far as the other HSF you all metioned the reviews showed them tied or behind the mc70. If you can put two-and-two together the D-Orb dont sound bad to me.
Sorry I submitted in the center of thought. give me a mindmlow said:I am not spending that freaking much on a HSF!

This is the Mc-370.f155mph said:Um what is MC70??? Anyway I had a WBK38 and you can get it really cheap now for $20 if you can find them. I lapped the thing and the max temp I get is about 44c. Now I have the older style swifty 462 and I am doing 40c with the delta 68 until I fried my Tbird.
I know that not everyone have money to spend on hsf. But remember this "what you paid is what you get". So don't complain if you get crappy temps.
PS Now I got a water setup, waiting for my board and Cpu.
