hi all just a quick question my cpu temps seem a bit high for a q6600 @ 60 degrees idle up to 75-80 under load, its not overclocked at all got an aero 7 aftermarket fan/heatsink on there too, have reseated and reapplied thermal paste b4, no difference , ive even hoovered the heatsink to get rid of any dust,
so my question is would i be best off with a new tower something like the antec 1200, as people are saying the get excellent temps with that case, or would i be better off with another fan/heatsink, does the 1200 really make a big difference, any input would be appreciated.
