only thing i don't like about the storm enforcer is that it's not really tool less design.. although some people tell me some tool less designs are flimsy so i don't know

not to mention you have to buy a top fan..

Alright.. I'm confused as to why my CPU is so darn hot ..

I currently have an E8400 (C0) on a P43-Neo3 Mobo .. in the bios.. it reads the CPU temps as around 29-30C.. which is awesome imo..

BUT when I look at HWMonitor and RealTemp.. they see it as 49-50ish and that to me seems pretty high for being idle..

I have an Arctic 7 Pro on it with arctic silver 5 on it as well..in an antec300 case with 2 intake fans, 1 top exhaust, 1 rear exhaust and 1 side intake and I woulda thought it would be more cooler..

am I doing something wrong?

I used to recall getting 37C idle.. I've cleaned out my case.. now I'm thinking of reapplying the thermal paste and cooler..

This picture isn't mine .. but this is how i setup the ac7phttp://img132.imageshack.us/img132/8742/img1297ln1.jpg

any advice?
