Afternoon all.
I have an SB81P running a 3ghz processor, 2gb of ram, 2 80gb sata disk running in a raid 0 config and a 7800GT
The cpu seems to hover at around 59 degrees at normal use
The system tends to be about 39 degrees
is this about normal ... if so .. how can i cool it down without killing the silence i enjoy ?
Does the heat transfer compound make much difference ? .. i didn't put it on this system due to worrying about having to send stuff back and t being covered in paste (previous bad experience!)
Thoughts ?
Cheers
Dave
