I just got my new system and i think my temps. are too high. I overclocked it so far by 4 MHz :D . My temps are as

3200+ 939 v.1.425 CPU 38!* C with XP-90 fan at 2722 rpm thats the max(should i get a new fan?) If yes which?


My chipset temp is at 48*C. 5273 rpm (BTW wat is a normal chipset fan speed?)

Also do u recommend any 80mm and 120mm fans(would like one with an led)
Also my case if a ThermalTake Tsunami (so which leds would u recommend with my case)

Thanx
 
I'm not sure but on itels I dont think you want them going over 60 Intels and on AMD's its like 70?
 
38C is a great temperature! My 3000+ S939 is running at 38C while I type (fan speed at 1638 RPM) I am also using a XP90 heat sink but use a Panaflo L 92mm fan running at 7 volts. For amusement, I shut off the fan and my idle temps jumped to 62C. Hit it with CPU Burn In, ran the CPU at 100% with the CPU fan off and it hit 71C before I got nervous.
If 38C makes you nervous, get a P4 Prescott and watch it cook at 60+C all day. Relax, you are running very cool. :cool:
