    I know some people seemed to think my full load temps were a bit high for a w/cooled setup so I swapped out my 26dB Papst 4412 F/2GLs (which I couldn't hear at all) for a pair of 32dB 4412 F/2GMLs (which I can nearly hear) and I now have a full load temp (after 1 hour of Hot CPU Tester Pro) of 39°C. :)

    i dropped my cpu load temps 10C as well, only i went from using a normal thermal paste to using AS thermal adhesive
    goes to show how much a good thermal paste will drop the temps
    im now idling at 27C and max load at 31C

    Good point bee - I'm still using crappy white silicon stuff on mine (probably cuz I know I'll be taking it all apart again to finish my mods before too long).

    Btw - I haven't forgotten your mail, I'm still working on the costs ;)
