Cooling Questions

Hi there,

I bought the Overclocked Bundle i7 OC'd to 4GHZ. I am just wondering if these temps are ok. Also it seems my GFX Card which is a Zotac Geforce 260GTX(R2), seems a tad hot for my liking. Let me know what you think:

Readings taken from Everest Ultimate:

Motherboard: 49C
CPU: 61C
Core 1: 48C <- Mostly Same for all cores.

GPU: 48C

I have a CM Storm case, with one intake fan at the front, One exhaust fan on top and at back of the case. I also have a fan blowing on my graphics card from the case window.

Thanks.

Your GPU temps looks quite cool

What are the full load temps like on the cpu.

Ah ok

On full load, the cpu averages around 70-75C mark.

Looks fine

Ok thanks for your time and help, just wanted to make sure. Kinda new to this stuff

(Normally only bought crappy pre-built manafactured computers)

No probs

I used to buy the crappy pre-built, but once you build your own there will be no holding back!!!
