Hey all,
I have just bought and setup my new system over the last couple of days (see sig below) and have done some temperature monitoring.
Chassis used is a Thermaltake Armor case with the following cooling:
2 x 120mm front intake fans,
1 x 90mm top exhaust fan,
1 x 120mm and 1 x 90mm rear exhaust fans,
1 x 80mm Antec spot cooler (RAM area).
I have used Prime95 to stress the CPU and Firmark 1.14.1.4 to stress the GPU and both ran together for over 1 hour.
Ambient room temperature = 24oc
Ambient case temperature (External front) = 25oc
Ambient case temperature (External rear) = 28oc
CPU temps while running Prine95 for 1 Hour = 61oc (stock cooler) - [Coretemp 1.0 RC6]
GPU temps while running Firmark for 1 Hour = 77oc @ 44% fan speed (Tri-X Cooler) - [TechPowerup GPU-Z 0.7.9]
NOTE: CPU showed 100% @ only 3.7GHz +/- (189 x 20) and not its 4.0GHz stock speed or 4.3GHz turbo speed.......
10 minute cool down = CPU @ 33oc and GPU @ 37oc
Are these temp OK?
Cheers,

P.S. Would my OCZ Vendetta 2 do a better cooling job than the current stock cooler?
