I just received my Swiftech MC462 with Sunon 80mm fan
(KD1208PTB2) from Coolerguys.
This is my system:
* AMD Athlon Thunderbird 1.2Ghz 266 FSB
* ArticSilver 2 Compound
* Enermax Whisper 330W Power Supply EG351P-VE(FC)
* Crucial 512M PC133 DRAM CAS2
* Asus A7V133
* IBM Deskstar 45GB 7200RPM
* 3Com 3C905TX NIC
* Elsa Gladiac Geforce2 GTS 32M DDR
* Black Hydraulic Case
* Black floppy drive
* Black IBM keyboard
* Creative Soundblaster Live X-Gamer
* Ricoh 9120A CDRW/DVD Combo Drive
* Front and rear Panaflow case fans
I have overclocked my system to 1400Mhz (10x multiplier, 140Mhz FSB). After reading the article on Overclockers.com about CPU markings today I see that I have one of the "better" processors with "AXIA" marking.
The problem is however, that the Swiftech heat sink together with the Sunon fan is not adequately cooling the CPU. Motherboard Monitor indicates that the temperature between 54-57 degrees. My Alpha PAL with Sanyo Denki cooled my system to about 52-53 degrees.
I don't get it. Any thoughts? I really don't want to have to use a monster Delta fan. The Sunon is relatively quiet at 33dba moving 35 CFM of Air.
