am using S478 mobo with a 2.4Celeron, planning to upgrade to P4 3.0E HT... heard the CPU temp is gonna be really hot. currently using Cooler Master Dream X3 on this celerom @ 52~62'C... if switch to P4 3.0 HT, need a better cooler? or use arctic silve 5?

i cut a HUGE hole on my side panel, installed alu net instead of acrylic, so that got air flow in but not much dust, but still the cpu is above 50...

FYI he using xp120+vantec 120mm bling bling fan laugh.gif
then are your casing very pack? the cable are well organized? if the cable hanging around like spider web in front the HFS, then there is no way the hot air go out. if everything seems fine, maybe reapply thermal paste like AS5 may help bring down temp a bit. Ever think of screw a fan on the alu net to draw cool air above CPU? brows.gif  Well, just my 2cents.  icon_rolleyes.gif

bro... i so susah put alu netting and all, just to prevent dust going into the casing... if put a intake fan... i might as well take down the whole side panel and put a stand fan towards the CPU tongue.gif

tried that before, works, but every once in a while have to clean up all those dead cockroach and stuff from the case...

Check your mounting.. If mounting not good, it will affect the contact between the cooler and your processor IHS. Thus, increase the temp.

If you really change to 3.0E, a third party cooler is HIGHLY recommended. It is one of those 'very hot' processor. Or you can try to look for those 3.0C. Much cooler.

using CoolerMaster Dream X3 now... not a high performance one... just low speed low noise only...

Err... Dream X3 is a very so so heatsink. It is quite impossible to cool down your 3.0E smile.gif

currently using a celeron only.
gonna get myself a 7300GT first, if it cannot meet my gaming requirement, then will change to P4 3.0G HT biggrin.gif

by then, i bet i have to fork out another several hundred for a cooler and a better PSU.... doh.gif

if possible just direct screw the fan on the alu net(promised that wont spoil the net), blow air on your HFS.  brows.gif

my friend tried to put 4 fans on his panel like yours, 2 intake 2 exhaust. Not so loud if you using silent fan. i still remember his 7000rpm delta fan playing hard rock concert on the alpha cooler laugh.gif

currently i open my side panel and a stand fan blow directly to it. lucky dont have cicak lipas. My prob now is the dust. tongue.gif
hoho...nice to hear that. fast fast pasang and rock your cpu.  thumbup.gif

7000rpm?! you gotta be kiddin me...
last time when my stock fan was running @ 5000rpm like that, the sound was already terrifying... can feel the table vibrates... 7000?!?! OMG....
