What's "normal"

[Guest]

Hello all, I've been wondering, and have found no place which can tell me. What is a "normal" level of heat inside the case, with fans, not water cooled. I'm using CPU cool and MotherBoard Monitor 5 to take temps and they usually hover around 28~35 celsius. Your personal experiences on this. Thanks.

Oh yeah. I'm running and AMD K7 - 700Mhz guess that's kind of relevant to the ambient temp inside the case.

I'm not sure, but it seems to me that the case temp should be at most only a few degrees above ambient.

Santa must be a trucker.

Well, I dont know which of the sensors are where, but the readings are usually 27c 35c 25c. So I refering more to temps which MBM5 or CPUcool report for people.

Best if the inside case temp is no more than 10 degrees higher than room temperature. This indicates you have good air movement in and out of the case.
