i have sabertooth p67 and i have an open case
http://www.amazon.com/MYOPENPC-Transparent-Computer-Mai...
i have it for about 1 month now and all the temps where between 30 -40 celsius
today the following temps where recorded after 30 minites of use , last time i used it was 8 hours ago
i got the temps from the thermal armor software from the motherboard
i5 2500k 37
motherboard 39
usb 3.0 ( 1 and 2) 50 and 51 (not used )
sata 6G 55
pci 1 (not used) 49
pci 2( gpu) 39
all the rest temps dont go more than 38
the degrees are on celsius
my hard drive is WD1002FAEX

Everything is normal. No temps are in the overheating range. You do realize though, that with an open case, you're allowing more dust in. Dust, when it builds up, acts like an insulator, trapping heat in. Take a look at your fans, vents, and heat sinks. Clean off any built-up dust.thanks what is the overheat range just so i know

In general, you don't want to see anything (under normal loads) above the 65 C. Note that during burn-in tests, such as Prime95, FurMark, etc, targeted hardware can reach upwards of 75C, but this is extreme load. No everyday run-of-the-mill task will elevate the temps that high, unless there is something wrong with your cooling devices.
For specific parts, like the GPU, it isn't that uncommon for a GPU to reach 65C while doing some intense gaming. But again, we're talking about load here. Under load, temps increase. The heavier the load, the higher the temp.
Keep in mind that the ambient temperature (the temp outside of the case) is also a factor. Take for example, the scorching hot temps of mid-day in the summer heat, versus the cold winter nights. Because the ambient temps change, so will the internal temp.
