Greetings everyone,
I have an AMD Athlon 1200MHz running on an ASUS A7V133 in an Antec SX1030B case. I have two fans in the back of the case, one power supply fan, and the airflow is decent with cables cleared. I ordered two more fans for the front of the case to pull air in. Right now my Athlon is running at 54C and the motherboard is at 31C and I am not sure what to do to make it cooler. I am using the HSF that came with the AMD processor and the thermal tape on the bottom. I have heard to use Arctic Silver and I am looking at a copper spacer but not sure what that does? Any other suggestions?
