70 degrees wow Im now running 4-1Gb sticks and the hottest my comp has gotten up to is 58 degrees and I have it over clocked to 3.5Ghz. I got myself the new Heat pipe style heat sink and I've got everything in a Antec Sonata II case with twin Push pull 120 X 120 X 25.4 mm varable speed fans pumping 79CFM at 2000 RPM and they are quiet as a mouse. Fact is the only way I can even tell my comp is running is because the blue light on the front of the case is on and the screen is working. Oh yeah I also have a 92mm CPU fan attached to the the heat sink and it is set to speed up or slow down as needed automaticaly. Most of the time it stays at around 1200 to 1600 RPM but it did get up as high as 1780 RPM when I had both Oblivion running on one screen and Guild Wars rinning on the other. talk about confused PC characters trying to control both games with the same mouse and I had both my IBM style Keyboard working Oblivion and my Saitek Gaming Key board controlling Guild wars but only the one cordless optical track Ball mouse trying to control both games at the same time. My son and myself sat here LOAO watching the PC running the wrong way in one game and the other PC slamming against the walls in the other was really funny but I was mainly checking to see could the PC handle the stress and the only thing that got warm was one of my two ATI X1600 cards I'm running now it got up to 66 Degrees and the other only hit 60 but the CPU stayed at 57.3 at the higest. Oh and after about 5 min I got the message that I was running incompatable programs and that it may cause Damage if I continued so I shut them both off. But it was fun for a few min.
I never said my PC got to 70 degrees [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Only my video card gets that hot, if you read my earlier posts, you would see that my PC is running damn cold, and at high speeds

Also, my card is A LOT bigger and more powerfull than yours, hence the higher temp (not to mention(which I did [img]tongue.gif[/img] ) that I have turned the fan down)
