1st. pc info ..
- Barton 2500 @ 3200 - 200 x 11
- NF7-S REV2
- SLK 800A + 80mm Panaflo L1A
- Radeon 9700 Pro Stock
- Antec Sonata Case
- 4 hdds.
When i first built this rig, i left the fan for the heatsink blow air AWAY from the heatsink.
avg CPU temp was 45idle / 52 MAX load --- 28idle / 32 load for system
those were the temps today and then i switched the fan so it blows air onto the heatsink.
temps are 40 idle / 49 load --- 30 idle / 35 load ..
im not worried and im sure temps for the abit are off but i was just wondering .. the system temps are ambient case temps? what temp does it read? why would it raise after i inverted the cpu fan?
thanks.
