question about my idle vs load temps...

[Pollux]

during the day (with a/c on), idle at about 42c, but under FULL load it only goes up to 47c...is this right? i often read of people who idle at 39c, and go up to 52c load, but my temps only raise 5 degress. im using mbm5 and bios d22.

Yeah, that's fine... the jump from idle to load is totally system dependent. My temps at night jump from 33°C idle to 38°C load (same delta as your's- 5°C)

the lower delta just means your cooling method is more reactive (rapid disipation of heat) than those with +10C changes.
