    My CPU

    I my comp is running a Barton 2500+ (stock) and all the default retial packaging

    MBM 5 reads the cpu temp around 33 idle/internet surfing and around 45-47 after playing some DX:IW for a couple of hrs.

    *Temps are in Celsius*

    i Wanna get etheir a Thermalright ALX800 with a A UV Reactive Fan or the TEC Wind ZEN cooler.

    If your not familiar with the later it combines heat pipe technology with 5000RPM fans.

    My motherboard is a Gigabyte GA7VAXP Ultra so the types of thermalright HSF is limited.

    Unless you are sat outside or in a freezer then you a reading the wrong sensor for your cpu.

    Speeze Lightowl for me, seems to do the job and isnt too loud (read a hell of a lot quieter than the pus fan, damn shitty cheap case psus)

    48 idle 53 sustained load for an athlon 2600+ at 2400MHz with case temps between 25 and 28.
