new Raidmax Scorpio Full Tower = Higher Case temp? :(

[redrocksout]

i went from idling at 48-49C (CPU) and 42-44C (case) and got the Scorpio hoping its 6 fans would greatly reduce temps but it seems I was wrong.

now i'm up to 49-51C CPU idle and 45-47C case! what gives? are the fans that come with the case known to suck? i have 10 Speeze 80mm fans that I can use to replace them all, though it wont make it look as pretty... but still.. what do you guys suggest?

heres the setup.

Tt Silent Boost Copper
2 front intake
2 rear exhaust
1 side intake
1 blowhole

*sigh*

LOL...don't worry about it. A 1-2* change isn't the end of the world. And the only thing all those fans do is contribute to hearing loss. 1 intake, 1 exhaust, and a thoughtfully designed case...that's all you need.

its all about the right balance of intake vs outtake.

As well as making sure fan airflow is free from obstruction

haha well yeah i know its not THAT bad, but my goal was to drop idle CPU temps to around 44C and case to ~39C.

must reach goal!
