Okay I just built my first custom PC and went out to buy the $30 Hyper 212 Plus from Amazon.com
When reading the reviews from there and Newegg, everyone with an overclocked i7 920/930 says they don't run any hotter than 70C.
I'm using Everest Ultimate and Real Temp version 3.4 to measure my temps but Real Temp doesn't show the CPU temp, only core temps. Which temp is the one that matters? Which one is the one everyone is talking about?
I overclocked my i7 930 to 4.0 Ghz (20x200)
Everest Ultimate
CPU Temp: 69C
Core 1: 86C
Core 2: 86C
Core 3: 84C
Core 4: 82C
If everyone in their reviews was talking about the Core temps then I'm running way too hot, if they're talking about the CPU temp then phew, I'm right where I wanted to be.
btw open case temps are 4C less.
