Hello All,
I have had an Inwin full tower case which I purchased back in
1998 with a Celeron 466. Since then I have upgraded to a 650 P3 and
now an AMD 2100+. Everything has been fine except I have a concern
when running games or maxing my CPU when encoding movies. The CPU temp
under normal conditions is about 128-135 degrees F (using the latest
ASUS PC Probe) but when I use the CPU at 100% it jumps anywhere
between 145-147 degrees. I have the standard AMD heat sink and fan
which came with the processor. I also have 1 cooling fan blowing in
air and 2 large fans blowing out from on top of the power supply
(giving 3 fans in total blowing out). First off do I have a problem
with cooling of my CPU or am I ok? Also do you think that my case
airflow isn't set up correctly and if so what recommendations does
anyone have for this? And last but not least should I get an
aftermarket cooling fan and heat sink?
Thanks for your input in advance,
Nick
