Hello everyone,

i just installed the two optional fans that came with the motherboard. It says in the manual that it shouldnt be used with an active cooler ( i suppose that means the stock cooler) but i read at an internet review of the motherboard and it said that i should use them. Anyway, im using intel TAT to monitor the temps:

@ idle (Oced 2.34GHz) CPU 1 44C and CPU 2 42C.
@ Load (oced 2.34GHz) CPU 1 62 ( i stopped it, got scarred :0) CPU 2 59C.

Prior to installation the temps were not any different really, so should i keep them on or take them off. Also which cpu cooler would you recommend for this mobo. (specs in sig)

Thanks in Advance
 
Thanks for the reply.

Im using the stock cooler that came with the processor and yes the processor is oced from stock 1.86Ghz. Any recommendation on a cpu cooler that is compatible with my motherboard would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance
 
One question about the Arctic pro cooler, do i still need to run the chasis fan with that installed? Also, my idle temps (see above) are pretty high, would it reduce them significantly?

Thanks in adavance
