    Load temps on E8400 w/Xigmatek HDT-S1283 seem high

    I actually have opened the side panel, only made a 2 degree difference. I was thinking of ordering some new fans for the case, I don't think the fans that came with the case move very much air.

    Load temps on E8400 w/Xigmatek HDT-S1283 seem high

    Load temps on E8400 w/Xigmatek HDT-S1283 seem high

    Here's a pic of what it currently looks like with the side panel off. The rear fan is exhaust, I also have a 120mm side intake fan. I'm just wondering if good airflow is getting blocked because of the size of the hsf? The side fan sits just below the hsf and blows pretty much directly in...

    Load temps on E8400 w/Xigmatek HDT-S1283 seem high

    Hopefully one of the mods/admin (?) will move this thread to the appropriate forum, I didn't mean to post this here. I used Prime95 for 6 hours, and OCCT for 2 hours. OCCT seemed to push it the highest @ 100% CPU usage...stayed around 53-55 the entire 2 hours though.

    Load temps on E8400 w/Xigmatek HDT-S1283 seem high
