Alright, I'm currently posting this on my laptop.
My case is a Raven RV02-E, for some reason the 3 180mm Bottom Intake Fans only hit a maximum of 850 - 900 rpm at 100%, there suppose to be 1200 rpm at 100%. I have two GTX 580s inside, and the case is pretty spacious.
I installed a Hyper 212+ with the basic CPU Fan as intake, and a 120mm 2000 RPM SickleFlow as Exhaust, I just recently remounted the heatsink and applied a thin layer of Arctic MX-4 to the CPU only... What has me concerned is that when I lined up the Heatsink the second time, its a little slanted. So I'm not sure if it's mounted properly or not.
As far as temps go, I'm running RealTemp and AI Suite 2
AI Suite 2 IDLE Readings:
CPU: 35.0c
CPU Socket: 40.0c
Motherboard: 35.0c
RealTemp IDLE Readings:
Min CPU Core 1: 31.0c
Min CPU Core 2: 34.0c
Min CPU Core 3: 32.0c
Min CPU Core 4: 29.0c
Right now I'm running Prime 95 for Stress Tests in order to make sure I can overclock safely. These are with Prime 95 running for an hour.
AI Suite 2 Prime 95 Stress Test Readings:
CPU: 71.0c
CPU Socket: 53.0c
Motherboard: 35.0c
RealTemp Prime 95 Stress Test Readings:
Max CPU Core 1: 66.0c
Max CPU Core 2: 72.0c
Max CPU Core 3: 71.0c
Max CPU Core 4: 68.0c
Now these are all done at stock speeds. As far as case flow, I'm actually really proud of how I finished this case compared to the one I made 7 years ago, there's barely any clutter and most wires are completely hidden in the back. Though the room I'm in is currently at like 80 degrees (Damn Arizona).
So, do you guys think this is stable enough for OCing (Never done it before). Also do you think I need to remount my Heatsink because of the slant issue? I just read a post that said I should have applied some Thermal Paste to the heatsink itself, but I didn't, is that a cause of concern?
