Hi - CPU temp on Abit AW9D-Max

Hogs · 22 Nov 2006 at 07:59

27 deg c idle 35 deg c full load - torture test burn in bitpro - both cores being punished. Is this low or normal for an E6600 in a coolermaster praetorian case? The H/S + Fan is retail and only 1 X 120 mm fan sucking in and 2 x 80 mm pushing out. seems very low temps to me - what do you guys think?
Got all the parts yesterday and I am very pleased with my rig atm. gonna push it a few mhz when i get back from Norwich sunday evening.

E6600
2X1Gb Corsair Xms2 800
2x 7800 GTX Nvidia Graphics SLI

do i need a bios update? I have flashing neon blue lights comming from beneath my moby - is this normal?

Thats a feature and can be turned off or on in the bios

Infact you can make the lights do a few different things
