We're gonna see a battle of the heavyweights soon...Which do you think performs better? My SI-97 is on the way as we speak and the AX7 is what I'm using now, but im noticing a big temp increase, used to run around 30C idle, even lower sometimes and now its running around 40c idle...Computer is different though, switched from my biostar to an asus...cpu is also 400 mhz faster...Switched from XP 2000+ to the Sempron, so i'm wondering if the cpu change or mobo change would increase them temps that much
