I recently bought a Cooler Master 590 case, and a new Corsair CX400 PSU to go with it. Currently, I am using an HP media center PC in the stock micro case with stock cooling, and it can get pretty hot in there. My GPU currently idles at 65 degrees here in Florida.
I am just curious as to what kind of temperature decreases I can expect after I swap the cases and PSU? It is extremely clogged in my HP case and the PSU is usually hot to the touch after intense gaming. I have the cables managed as neatly as possible which doesn't really say much. I also rid the fans of dust regularly.
Here are my current specs:
Athlon 64 X2 5200+
Asus M2N68-LA MB
500GB SATA HD
2x2GB G.Skill 800
XFX 8600GT XXX
300W bestec PSU (stock)
