Newbie ??? for Exos owners

[dmw5678]

Just set up an Exos2 and on full load using Sandra or 3Dmark or Gaming for hours. The Exos2 registers a 3-9 degree upswing with the fans speed at 5 with the thermometer on the CPU. The case fans are set at 60% I can barley hear the Rapters on occasion. My mother board (Abit IC7-G) CPU sensors go from 36c-45c. I believe the ABIT board exaggerates a little. Is this accurate? Anyone else with this unit, I’ve noticed that fan speed 6-10 on the Exos does little to affect performance. Previously I had an Alpha heat sink and Tornado fan and I would see 15-25 degree upswings. I’m, cooling the CPU and Northbridge. My case is packed with 2 rapters & 2 Sata HD & 1 Ide HD & 2 cdRoms stuffed in a small CoolerMaster Wavemaster.




Thanks, Water cooling Newbie.
