I just got a new desk from Staples, its the Z Line Eclipse.

So i setup my main rig on it, turn everything on and whats this? my idle temps dropped 10°F !! i now idle at 90.5°F (havn't put load on it as of now)
I couldn't be happier right now.

This is probably due to the fact that now my tower is closer to the floor (heat rises) and that its not cluttered w/things surrounding it. and its closer to the A/C kinda.

For you guys that run hot and don't know why, just take a look at your workstation and move some stuff around, or maybe its time for a new desk?

just my little expierience.

Airflow around the case can have a big impact. It is always funny to see a system stuffed in one of the desks with a cubbyhole and a solid door on the front.
