dont worry la

most of the time hsf nowadays comes with a silent fan....

and the fans will be automatically controlled to rev up and down according to cpu load....

most of the time fans will be low speed (silent) if ur cpu is idle

hmm... normally i just put all blow out lol...

so that hot air will never be able to be trapped inside

fresh air will somehow sip in through the gaps of ur casing....

but some prefer to have at least one intake

eh eh nice girl temp

will update for ya when i am free

btw, ada pix for modded stuff ker?

updated liao

sorry not much time nowadays

erm... its like that one la

that proc is not really known for being cool and its 65nm anyways

i dont think so there's any need to change unless u like the design of the scorpion..... the difference is not too far from what i can see here

u can take TRUE as the reference and from what i tested personally, scorpion only lost a few degree c to TRUE

u can make ur own comparison here

http://www.anandtech.com/casecoolingpsus/s...aspx?i=3141&p=6

who sell cheapest u go garage sales survey la

fm123 is good if u can tahan noise

kalo want silent get xigmatek XLF fan

rilex la bro

i am really sorry here cos i didnt follow up on recent news much already nowadays due to studies

i think maybe the 1366 support uses a newer bracket

maybe the bracket u currently have i think is a older ones cos that time still takde 1366

erm, chipset a.k.a northbridge overheating normally can be solved by putting a small 40mm fan on top of it...but then, i heard those fans are noisy

or else go garage sales and look for some chipset cooler like those of xigmatek or deepcool brand

anything below 50ish celcius is alright for a chipset

temps can be affected by your contact and also thermal paste spreading

applying too much or too little can reduce its effectiveness

and the idle temp dont really care la cos not all procs of the same type is gonna idle at the same temp

u can jaga the load temp then can liao

those two cooler are of different class actually

the ultima 90-i is considered somewhere near top of mid end while the tower extreme is considered high end cooler

yup u can say so

u dont need to worry about the contact surface being smooth cos normally they will form it to the best shape to contact with ur proc...

the thing u need to pay attention to is by checking the tightness of ur fitting when installing the heatsink to ur mobo.... tight fitting is a sign of the heatsink contacting well with the proc

as for thermal paste normally they will provide u....

and u can source for some nice thermal paste if u want...those thermal paste normally gives u a performance increase of a few degree c better than stock ones

i long time didnt update new thermal paste performance liao so i cannot rekomen liao

naise....

glad if more pictures is gonna be flaunted

hi guys... long time didnt post here already

kinda busy with studies these days and i apologise for not able to help out on the questions posted here cos my knowledge about tech is really poor nowadays

i hope there will be someone who are willing to volunteer to succeed this thread or maybe create a new thread and serve the LYN community better

hey man, sorry for not updating

will do it asap after i am free tonite

thanks for the contribution

hmm..cant really tell

but seems like oxidation to me

assuming if its just minor oxidation, it wont be likely to affect the performance imho

performance kacau when the hsf is dirty or when the fluids in the pipes leaked

iirc if u lapped too much the pipe will hancur and all the liquid inside will come out

maybe macam ni liao

dont think so

maybe u can try using common sense

lol

i have just cleaned my own thermalright today. using back tuniq tx2 which already kept for years

i think my thermalright ( cant even remember the model name) corroded already due to too much dust trapped for too long lol

thats kinda high

is that on 100% processor load? and did u overclock the processor?

else maybe its time u check the heatsink for cleanliness and reapply the thermal paste on the processor.

im not sure what is good thermal paste right now. but maybe google would help lol

left this thing far too long already
