    Hey i was wondering if my temps were high, wit the case closed the case temp is about 55C average and the CPU is about 45C.

    With the case open and my own cooling method the Case comes down to 45C and the CPU comes down to 40C

    I was reading the forums and seen some people getting temps in the 30's!!

    my own cooling device is really cheap, i freeze juice box cartons, put one on top the video card and one inbetween the harddrives.

    As i am new i just read the read before post, and seems like im not overheating but am still pretty hi.

    Video card temps, some of the new cards have built in sensors, mine i believe doesnt. It does in fact get extremely hot, i cant even hold my fingers on the chip it burns em, there is a built in heat sink but no fan on it.

    Ive read that they can be overclocked...how??

    Did you read the OCing thread? You should check all the "Reads" before you post like this. And doesn't the condensation from the juice box get everything wet? :unch:

    actually it condenstats on the top of the juice box, the other sides stay dry, i guess the heat doesnt let condensation form.
