Pawa,

Re: The CPU (1 GHz Tbird), when Idle (under w2k) runs at 32C to 35C, with case at 25.

Wow, that’s cool my units generally run 38C to 40C with case at 35C


My case may have a better air-flow, as it is rackmount with 2 80 mm fans blowing the air in and a dual power supply sucking it out.

But if your CPU is only 3 to 5C higher than the case temp. your cooler may be working better, since my CPU is about 7 to 10C higher than case temperature.

I am assuming that the 25C I mentioned measures the case. I have 3 sensors that give me readings. The highest reading is obviously the CPU, the middle one being the chipset and the lowest one I assume the inside the case temperature.
