Damn this thing does a good job at cooling my cpu

it is the stock hsf that came with my compaq

my CPU idles at 30C and never goes over 35C when gaming and that is with the fan speed at 42%(all fans) for some reason I can control my fans with speedfan though.

 

Great: I have a 3.0E(Prescott) stock fan,heat sink,thermal pad and it idles at aroung27-29 C. But I also have a Aspire X Navigator case that has great cooling

 

my dads p4 1.6ghz idles at 47C and heats up to 55C+ when playing games. he has dust elephants in that old Hp that is probably the problem. he has cleaned it like 3 times since he bought it in 2001, well actually I cleaned it out because it got to 63C and was performing like crap.

 

Nice, I'm still using stock fan on my AMD Sempron 2500+ 1.75 Ghz, Hits 50C at load

Thinking about getting Thermaltake Beetle thought

 

I am thinking maybe my temps aren't that great, i think my cpu die temp is listed as AUX in that case it goes 50C+ under load
