So Ive been monitoring my mobo recently since im upgrading to a phenom, and while the cpu remains at 50c in use (which is already high) the mobo is starting to scare me at 48c, considering I have 4 case fans and a front vent with 2 passive vents on the side, the case is spacious, so I cant identify whats causing my mobo to heat up so bad in basic use. Mainly, the CPU always matches the mobos temp, so I think its holding the cpu temp up as well. Ive moved wiring out of the way to the best of my ability, and with all the fans capped its still hitting 45c - 50c constantly. It rarely goes under or over this threshold however, and ive been watching for a few weeks.
I even tried moving some stuff around my room to improve, 2 windows in between the pc and an AC unit blowing into the intake fan. Opening the whole case up and running a fan on it only reduces the temp to 38c.
Any good fixes?
I reduced all my OCing on the CPU to see if it improved as well, no dice.
