Right now i don't have the fan on the heat sink, nor do i have the side of the case attached. My ambient room temp is ~75f. I have my e8500 with this heat sink attached with AS5, and the heat sink is right in front of a 120mm exhaust fan. Besides attaching the fan and closing the case (im waiting for a replacement 360mm fan) What can i do to reduce my e8500's Temp? It idles at about 44-46 right now and about 65 load without side or fan. Ill be putting the fan back on shortly.
