I bought the blaze from becooling since I was cheap and wanted the clip it came with because I have no holes in my mobo.
Well, my first attempt, I get really poor temps as compared to all the temps posted on this board. I don't overclock the xp 1600.
First, I have 89 camaro heatercore, viaaqua 1300, 2 80mm fans in a shroud on the heatercore. I get 50C on idle and 60C on load with case temp 40C.
So, I put the heatercore outside, I opened my window and have it hanging out the window to draw cold air. Now I get 39C idle and 42C on load and case temp is 30C.
Is this okay temps? Also, I would like to get the maze 3 with the clip, should I do that or just stick with the blaze? How do they compare to each other?
Thanks.
