yup,why dont u use BIOS to have the reading?
anyway,ur AAKS quite hot.

How to make it cooler?

Just checked : In BIOS, the reading is ok.

If it was cooled passively, that temp is pretty normal for an AAKS.

Btw, the only accurate way to get PSU readings is using a multimeter.
Any bios reading or software reading is always out to a certain extent.
However, the more reliable softwares which could monitor this is the Lavasys Everest Ultimate.

Need some opinion from you guys/girls.

Using CM690 currently, I would like to put some fans to make inside casing more cooler.

My idea.

Air Intake - Front and both side.
Air Outlet - Back and top.

Is it ok?

Between, how to cool the hardisk "actively"?

moar fan != colder. choose & use fan wisely.
between? btw, ur AAKS quite hot.
use chopsticks mod. ask Ace meimei

dont stack ur hdd,leave some space in between it.Mine one hdd then blank 2 hdd space then only another hdd.
both of my AAKS only 35c like that if actively cool around 32c nia

yup,DMM and cucuk to molex is better way to get reading.

yup,it's ok but i suggest u using strong instake at front cause the HDD area blocked quite a lot of air flow.


i use screw one la,where got chopstick?

Chopsticks mod? What is that?

Strong intake means, loud sound - right?

In Penang area, which shop/person provide some modding service?

My requirement,

Change chipset heatsink to better heatsink with fan.

You should try doing that yourself.
Get a chipset heatsink like the thermalright HR-05/HR-05 SLI.
The attach a small 70mm fan to it.

Btw, a decent fan doesn't 100% be loud. Go for something which is tolerable for you.
Another thing, use the cm690 front intake to cool down the hdd.
Use the side as an intake. The rear and top as exhaust will be good.
But make sure theres ample space beside for air to circulate.

Thanks for everyone here is Penang Overclockers club.
Almost all my question being answered professionally.

Meno, I do think it's hard to disassemble the chipset heatsink. Afraid I would spoil the chipset, that's why I would like to leave it to more "pro" people.

Well, you could always ask Ace to guide you and you try it out yourself.
The Hands On experience is always different. Just be careful and dun do anything stupid, then everything should be fine.
