Get the fan the right way up....

[aztechnology]

Just a quick tip on overclocking that I seem to have discovered by accident the other night,

Make sure your CPU fan is on the right way up, mines been upside down for about 18 months . I Always wondered how everyone got there temps so low, putting the fan the right way up lowered mine by 10c idle and about 4c on load.

(A bit embarassing really, considering how long I've been at this game)

I managed to have an input fan blowing out once, and wondered why I didn't have any airflow...

Needless to say, putting it the right way round lowered my temps A LOT!
