Desk blocking the side intake? I say cut it!

Allowed me to OC back up to 3.8 with HT on and stay where I was when I was at 3.5.

I think unless the case was right up against the wall you cut out.. it was getting air just fine.. lol

Sensor probes disagree with you :-D

Saw a 4-7c drop inside once I cut that off.
