I'v got the following temp's when both the CPU and GPU are in basically full load.

CPU: 49 C
NB: 55C :eek:
GPU: 65C


I'm not realy that good with knowing what chips are suposed to be at what temprature. But i think these temps are slightly to high?

There's no overlocking been done, front case fan is intake, rear exuast, and a side intake.


Any one got a rough guess at whats a nice temp for these to be at under load ?


Thanks you :p
 
I thought it was too hot, i'm glad it's not tho :D

It's an Saphire Pure Innovation board
AMD x2 4.8
and the card is an Nvidia Geforce 7800 GT
 
Gigabyte G-Power Pro i'm using.

Not a very good thing to have if your planing on sleeping with your system on, it's 21db at it's lowest rpm

Saying that, i don't have a rpm controller for the case fans, so they'll be on max i presume, must about about 27db on the 90mm fans, omg i'm changing subject!

Any ways lol, those temp's... they are not high enugh to make me think about fitting water cooling no ?
 
Thanks for the replays guys, i am thinking about getting water cooling... i've never used it before so i'd be a first timer.

Are they louder than air cooling ?

That start kit looks pritty ace! :D
 
If i was to use a water cooling kit, could i turn off my case fans and keep a cool temp?

Wouldn't mind a trickling water sound, that'd be relaxing :D
 
Hey guys, lets just say i have 2x fans and each fan is 20db... would the overall sound be 20db, 40db or somwere in betwean ?
