So, I recently upgraded my stock fan in my SG05 to a TD03-Slim, but I had to do a bit of case-modding, which blocked some airflow. I had my fans in a push-pull configuration, pulling air through my front and out the back. I am getting 41 degrees idle on TD03-Slim, but 45 degrees on the Stock cooler, but when I load up Prime95 Small FFTs, My TD03-Slim after about 6 minutes gets to 120 degrees celsius and shuts down, while my stock cooler could manage it at 100 degrees. I have an i3-4160 on an H97M-ITX/AC. I have screwed everything just that sweet spot tightness, but I have overheating issues. Please help.
Do I switch back to my Stock fan for gaming or can I run with the TD03. I am really scared, and I do not want to run any CPU-Intensive games, but my GPU can handle the temperature at 80 degrees on FurMark.
