Well i have my huge Ultra-120A very close to the NB so i guess heat from that could be affecting the NB.
Anyway its not so much of a problem anymore as I just got a wicked deal on a watercooling kit:
Swiftech Apogee GTZ
Swiftech MCP655
Swiftech MCR320
DangerDan G1/4 1/2" barbs
Micro-micro res
10 clamps
EK 4870 waterblock
FeserOne UV black Fluid
USD$220 plus my Geil DDR3 sticksShame its gonna be three weeks for delivery though
Hey TheGang - what voltage do you run your NB at? Mine peaks at 66C when I pump 1.6v into it and ramp the fsb up to something like 416-423.
At 400x8 with 1.5v it idles at 48 peaks maybe 53C which matches your run which is the same fsb 400x8.
WATER WATER WATER WATER WATER WATER WATER!!!

SilverStone NT06 Evolution fan cooler has some big issues...
Noway with stock NB Fan, but choosing another thin Fan should be a good choice (as some people talk about there). Another choice; if we turn NT06, 90 degrees, it could help NB cooling too (not with high NB voltages). NT06 hasn't a fan in it's stock box, but with a FM123, they both make a good job for CPU and NB...

this is my current setup
in the second picture the fan on the nb is roughly at 15degrees, it is very hard to make out in the picture
this was suggested by saaya and appears to keep the nb temperatures down
this only a temporary measure as i intend to go watercooling on the nb and cpu when i decide what watercooling kit to go for

Your watercooling choice and setup, both are good ideas broBut CPU, NB and GPU should probably generate high water temps under OC conditions, be careful please... And yeah, water water water lol!
I run up to 1.78V on NB cuz have a 18°C watercooling there. But i dunno air temps yet...
345*9FSB>1.28V//500*10FSB>1.54V//570*7.5FSB>1.73V//575*7FSB>1.77V//585*7FSB>1.78V
