Hey guys/gals, it's been a while.
Anyway, I've been really enjoying my PC, hasn't been a game out that I haven't been able to put on high settings etc.
However I'm becoming quite alarmed at my temperatures. Now I know tonight is a particularly hot one but it is something I expect more of as we move into summer.
Basically I started to play some Rift and within about 2 minutes my CPU temperatures were hitting the 80's. Nothing has gone pop which is good but It does worry me. I have the eco water cooler thing and I expect it to be much better at keeping temperatures low...
Couple of things...
Is this "safe" operating temperature? (what is the max temp for the i7-930?)
Is there a problem with my water cooler? Numbers are implying its under-performing and on hot evenings I could really do without my pc acting as a radiator.
Any help is much appreciated.
