Core i5 inside Antec Minuet 350

[sagi_24]

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask your opinion about heat issues regarding Core i5 inside a slim case (Antec Minuet 350).
I have no plans for gaming or OC.

Do you think I will have heat problems? Would you suggest adding cooling solutions?


Thanks for your help!



These are the rest of the planned components:

GIGABYTE GA-EG45M-UD2H
G.SKILL 4096MB (2048MBX2) DDR3 1333 CL8 - RIPJAWS - F3-10666CL8D-4GBRM
SAPPHIRE HD4350 256MB DDR2 HDMI
DVD:ASUS DVDRW DRW-20B1LT LIGHT SCRIBE - SATA
WD 500GB 16MB SATA2 7200 RPM - WD5000AAKS

It should be fine. The Lynnfields run really cool, around 33~35 degrees celcius with stock heatsink.

You are fine, assuming your room temperature is 20-25C, your idle temperature would be 30-35C for the i5 750.

Are you using the stock heatsink?

Thanks.

Yes, I was planning on using the stock heatsink. Should I do otherwise?

You're fine since you don't OC or game. Good luck on your build
