i just changed my mobo...its now P4GPL-X...with 915PL chipset. temp at norm is around 40'C and goes up to 45"C. is this normal ar? i have a fan aimed to the haetsink also...without it the temp goes around 48"C and the Heatsink itself (i got Thermal diode fixed on it) has temp upto 50"C....
my previous mobo with SIS chipset only like 32 (room temperature)...
the funny thing is my 3.2E has lower temp sometime (37 - 42'C)...but its watercooled larr...

QUOTE(sHawTY @ Nov 14 2006, 01:30 PM) Or, in other way, you can just buy a 40MM fan and find a way to fit it on top of the Chipset heatsink, that will decrease you're chipset heatsink a lot...  yeah....i've done that alraedy...it dropped temps by 5'C... guess its cause this Mobo is s-478 with PCI-e..haha... dont think will be installin chipset cooler netime soon...cause just finish fixing everything...took long time to make it look good... and even decorate the 40mm fan with highlighter so reacts with uv... and to those who wanna do that...i found that Pink and Yello react best.... blue not so good...
