Hi Babdi,

From the figures that you have posted I don't think you have too much to worry about and I don't think there is much else that you can do with the PC configuration/hardware to lower temperatures much further, especially considering the ambient temps in India.

I think you should be really pleased with the results you have obtained.

Thank you absic. The point right now is our ambient is around 26-27 deg. Hence thought a 9 to 10 deg CPU idle temp  is high

To be honest I think that is about right. For example here in the UK at the moment, my ambient temp is about 18°C but my CPU is running at 25°C which as a 7°C increase over ambient, but I am using one of the largest Air Coolers on the market. When I was using the Stock Cooler my temps were about 15° - 20°C above ambient! :o Still well within the specified range of the CPU but too high for my liking, hence the change of Cooler.  ;)

I really do not think you have anything to worry about and apart from going to a refrigerated water cooling system and the extra expense and modifications that would entail, there isn't much more that you could do to bring your temps down further. One of the problems of living in a hotter country I guess.  :-\

Absic is right in my opinion and you can't expect much lower temperatures without going to extreme measures. I run a liquid cooling system with an external radiator and still run at several degrees above ambient. Don't worry about it and just enjoy your computer.  ;)

Absic is right in my opinion

Well, that's a first! I never thought I would get you to admit that DM!!  ;D

Do you know japanese language was invented at a local pub very early morning ;).The scribble says it all  ::)
Okay jokes apart I going to switch my front top 120,2400 rpm,106 CFM silverstone fan to top and move the standard NZXT fan to front top. The NZXT fan seem to run slower. Thinking putting a high CFM directly on top will help. Will post results
