yeah mines usually not bad but I had to move it a while back due to new furniture and it doesnt have as much air space around it now so I better have a look.



as a side note, got delayed a bit there had to rescue the wife from a spider walking across the floor. ::)

Rik

Better than a chicken crossing the road, Baz. :)

Is that due to you passing wind rik?

i have been lazy recently and only realised the problem when my cpu was at a toasty 70c when making some compression work.

checked inside and the stock cpu cooler was clogged up - took it off and the thermal cr*p was literally baked =/ dodgy

cleaned it off, got some proper AS mx-2 on it, found my old zalman cooler and wapped it on - temps are now a nice 30c and sticking there  :thumb:

time for some overclocking tho

Rik

;D

I'd expect nothing less from you Sam, now what are you going to do about fixing my machine? ;)
