My ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer is here...

Well, I installed a regular HDD and Windows 7 last night. Nice!

But, that Corsair H50 CPU cooler is going back!

Corsair states we have to run cool air from outside the case, through the radiator and into the case to get the best temps. The mobo, video card, memory chips and radiator have raised my interior temps to a point it feels hotter than my 300 watt Krell stereo amplifier!

I think I'll return or sell the Sapphire Vapor-X card and just water-cool the complete system.

0052 is working well! I haven't tweaked my voltage settings yet, but I am at 4.18 just by raising bclk a few points.

LOL just turn the fan around. Your case temperatures will thank you.

If your case is properly ventilated its internal temperature should be (at most) 1-2 degrees warmer than the room. If you have aggressive ventilation there should be no difference. This will translate into the same results (CPU temperature) without interfering with airflow in your case and pumping in heat that you don't want.
