this is gonna be an interesting essay by the way
i've fsp saga II 500W with phenom II 955be,hd 5670,2 case fans,1 hdd
the problem is that cpu is shooting to 62 degrees in prime95,just the same as it's max by amd
1 side fan is in front of cpu,1 is at the rear but both are cheap 80mm generic ones which i assume have low airflow,case is also no brand
the cpu cooler and tim are the stock ones
ambients are around 35 degrees here,maybe 62 degrees is a bit high considering high ambient temp also and i have checked that heatsink is installed properly but that messy cpu fan is shooting upto 5700rpm at full load which should be dangerous for the fan's life too,i don't really mind the noise by the way
but the main problem is that psu is also getting hot(by hot i don't mean it's hard to touch) under load,now why is that because i know it can handle that system well..
it's a mid tower case,now generally i'm thinking that maybe hot air from the cpu and poor airflow by cheap fans is causing the psu to suck in that hot air
my question is-if there are other possibilities too for that,what are they?
i've not got enough money solve these problems but let's say these are the options available to me for tim(low to high price):
cooler master htk-002
arctic silver matrix 2.5g
cooler master ice fusion 40g
sunbeam tx-3 extreme 3g
sunbeam tx-4 extreme 3g
cooler master thermal fusion 400
arctic silver 5 3.5g
generally,is 3g enough to cover 3-4 heatsinks of phenom 955be?
these are the coolers available(low to high):
CM tx-3
scythe katana3
CM hyper n520
CM hyper 212+
CM vortex plus
thank you for reading answering so much questions..it will be a great help
