Ok, what temperatures are you guys seeing on your "case" sensor on either Abit EQ or MBM5? Mine reports 32-34 C usually, up to 40C if I crank the voltage on the CPU up and Prime. But, that sensor is located between my DDR and my CPU, and in my case tucks nicely behind my hard drives :mad: So I am not sure how bad of a temperature it is, and how hot it really is getting in my case. I know it's fairly warm as I don't have the best airflow, but I want to compare to other people.

Please post your temps and what cooling you have..
 
40 C on the mobo, with five good 80mm fans. I wouldn't worry too much, dude.

EDIT: Oh yeah, under load too.
 
i use abit hardware doctor (v1.3, 1.6 gives me bit higher cpu voltage, etc)..
anyway my temps are around 28C for chipset n 44C for cpu at 2.2ghz @ 1.55v.. using stock amd hsf.
 
mine's either really off or i have super excellent case air flow(both excellent possibilites; 5 coolermaster rifle bearing case fans) but it normally reads around 22-23C in MBM @ idle and around 26C max ive ever seen it even while getting crazy with the mobile barton temps =p
 
30C as a max, and that is when it is like 95 degrees F out and maybe high 80's in here + gaming. I was under the impression that my airflow wasn't really great, but I guess it isn't that bad either. Right now it is 24C, and as an average it is probably ~27C. I have two 80mm intake and two 80mm exhaust.
 
cpu: 38
case: 21

but there is some fairly cold air coming in from the window

normally i get
cpu: 42
case: 33

got 2 intake, 2 exhaust, 1 on vidcard going in, and dual in PSU going out.
 
ok this is the accurate temp recorded about two weeks ago..
AQYHA 0414, 2.2@1.55v
26c, 41c idel, 25c ambient, case open
30c, 44c idel, 25c ambient, case shut

ambient temp and air-flow in case makes big diff to the overall temps.
 
AMD XP 2500+ @ 2.2GHz 1.62v

CPU:
idle: 47C
load: 53C

Case temp:

37C

Ambient:

30C
 
It's gotta be partially my CPU warming up the air then, at least part of it. My CPU runs 50+ *C. Hmm.. those of you with CPUs <45c are running much cooler. Those hard drives running right by the sensor must not help either, heh.
 
My case temp is usually between teh 26-29C range under load, with a CPU temp of about 43-45C under full load. Granted, thats all on water, so I'm sure that I would be getting different results than you. I also have 3 lower-rpm 120mm intake fans on the case too, with my big 120 blowing through my radiator out the back.
 
FYI, there was a bios update out that fixed the reported temps. I guess the abit boards were reporting temps 10 degrees too low. So you might want to make sure you have the latest bios.
 
10 degrees too low? I thought it was 10 degrees above the right temp :confused:

im pretty sure that you are right, and that it was reporting temps too high
 
my CPU runs at about 48c full load and my case temp reports about 30c.
 
CPU: 38(idle) - 46(full load)
System: 29(idle) - 32(full load)

I think the 5 x 80mm Blue Led Coolermaster fans help a bit. =]
