Lo Lads
I've gotten sick of running on the stock Intel heatsink; and until I get my wc setup completed I decided to try the ASUS silent square because temps are getting hotter outside - 31 deg C today (Spring). Anyway, I got it installed tonight and I've included some pics for ya.
I'm really impressed with it actually, apart from the ever so slightly fiddly locking mechanism and having to take the mobo out of the case. It idles at around 33 -34 degrees, and after gaming and running dual instances of F@H the temps at load average 40 - 42 deg C. Now I'm gonna start clockin' hehe :rocker:
Edit: Just for interest sake, today my PC reached 60 deg C @ load (PC Probe II) due to the hot day, on the stock heatsink
