K. fine. Thanx. i will try doing dat myself.... ;) ...



Hey forgot 2 ask u whether will i b able 2 work the 2 fans with my current config i.e. 350W smps (minus one 40gb hd):confused: :confused: :confused:

A good branded 350W psu will work fine but brands like intex, mercury, etc. output is much lower than rated. So first check with your current one, if you have problem then change it. BTW, did you check the voltage in the BIOS?

Yes. They r as follows:
VCORE OK
DDR Power OK
+3.3V OK
+12V OK

Please check these screenshots. They had been taken at an interval of a few seconds. The +12V reading fluctuates. Rest all seems to b fine. Also i hav attached a 80mm fan at the back side of my cabinet, it was the only place i cud fix one. No side fan or front fan is possible. The temperatures hav only slightly improved. I mean the hd temp rarely crosses the 50C mark. Can sum1 tell me wat r ur hd temp or wat is the optimum temp for hd???

(+/-)5-10% fluctuation is acceptable. In good branded PSU this differnce is around 1-2%. As for HDD temps mine rarely goes beyond 43c on loads as for idle its around 38-39c. So try to keep it below 50c at load.

Hey bro, forgot to ask u wat about procy temp? I removed and cleaned the procy fan and heat sink. Now the procy temp goes upto and remains almost constant at 50C. There isn't any way to reduce this temp, i suppose, coz it already has a procy fan. Wat about ur procy temp?

My C2D E4300 overclocked from 1.8GHz to 2.4GHz using stock cooler, idles around 42C and load temps. are around 49C. I am actually waiting for a better cooler to get it to 3GHz.

:shock: Wow dats great :eek: :p . Must learn overclocking. Its a shame on me to own an AMD Athlon 3200+ 2.0GHz processor and NOT overclock it :( . Anyways thanx for ur suggestions guys ;) . Am still experimenting with the position of my fan and hav finally removed it from the back and fixed it in the side vent. And suprisingly the hd temps hav not been crossing the 45c mark :D . Even the mobo temp remains almost constant at 35c :D :D . So i think this is fine. Will pm if i need more help :D :D :D .
Once again thanx a lot guys:p .
