I custom built computer with this specs:
Pentium 4 stock 3.2 OC'ed to 3.52
BFG 7600 GT stock oCed
P5ND2-SLI Motherboard
Viper 2 Case
520 w. Power Supply
3 PCI cards
1 gb DDR2 RAM
My case is about 36C idle, about 40C at full load. However, my CPU (according to my programs) is idle @ 22C, and about 32C full load. This seems strange to me. I have the 2 original case fans, one spot fan, and one 80mm fan just sitting blowing towards my PCI cards. I have two hard drives, and two optical drives. My computer is underneath my desk, and the outside temp is about 23C. Also, when I first overclocked my CPU from 3.2, it only raised the tempature about 7C idle., not much more full load. I am not too conserned about the noise my computer makes, and I don't want to spend too much money (under $150), and I don't have the experties to install a watercooling system. I would really like to either be reasured that my case tempature is alright, or have a cheep alternative to fix it. Thanks!
