Hi all,
a) Rig spec in my sig
b) I do not overclock
c) Only heavy duty is video encoding and phptoshop/illustrator. I am a regular torrent user and releaser, so that I have to video encode regularly.
d) I have only one case fan (that comes with NZXT Gamma)
e) Stock AMD heatsink
f) CPU temps:
Idle:30-31 (in centigrades)
Normal jobs (browsing, movies, etc): 40-50 (in centigrades)
Video-encoding: 70-85 (in centigrades)
1) Do I need to get an aftermarket heatsink?
2) If so, what model would you recommend?
3) Or, adding some case fans / replacing heatsink fan will reduce the temp?
4) Is the temperature ok? And, I need to do nothing.
Personally I was thinking of adding some case fans and set up a proper heat flow system and see the temperature, and then would like to decide on heatsink / heatsink fan.
5) Please suggest some good 120mm / 140mm case fans.
(LED may or may not be present. Its useless for me. Having it or not doesn't make a difference. Low sound, though, is a concern.)
