Case cooling Help

[skinman2]

Hey!

The case is blazing. It is currently running @ 38 C along with a 40 C CPU and a 35 C Mobo. I have 1 fan that is for exhaust in the back. I have 2 extra 5.25 slots avaliable and was wondering if somehow I could fit a fan in there. Any suggestions?

BTW: I was looking at some reviews of the Vantac Stealth Fans. They claim to be one of the best? Can anyone confirm that?


Thanks!

what kind of case do u have?

Vantec stealth fans are decent 27cfm @ 21dBA, you could also get some NMB Fans.

I have a el cheapo generic case.

Blazing? There is nothing wrong with any of those temps, in fact they are actually pretty good. I wouldn't worry about it.

I heartily concurr with sodcha0s - Your temps are fine, don't worry about it for a second.

I recently just went from 49/40 to 39/31 by changing my case and was tickled! As long as you are happy with the noise level of your fans (IE they don't need to run like jet engines to obtain those temps) you should be quite pleased with those temps, as they are nice.

It is curious that your case temp and CPU temp are soo similar though, what software/hardware are you using to obtain those temps. If you are using a stick on probe on your CPU, your core temp could be significantly higher.
