my experience

I've experienced a similar issue on my intel motherboard. It's an older Pentium 4, Socket 478 motherboard (intel D865PERL). According to the intel monitoring software this board has 3 temperature zones--Zone 1, Zone 2, and CPU Zone. According to the intel website Zone 2 corresponds to your VRM zone ...

One more thing I came across - the idea of higher velocity of air through the case. Basically, with all cooling components being the same, the smaller case would replace the air inside the smaller case more quickly. Basically giving you better cooling performance which may let you slow down your fa...

In the wintertime where the temp here in Southern California is 20°C and all fans are on high, the CPU temp at load is 40-42°C. I haven't tested this new setup in the summert...

Antec Solo build advice

I've been experimenting with my old Pentium 4 system with the hopes of upgrading to a faster computer early next year. The system has always been very loud and would frequently overheat in the summertime when ambient temps would regularly hit 95°F (35°C). I don't do a lot of gaming, but I do quite...
