Default Finally Over With....

Hey guys,

I just wanna post that I switched out all of my crap out of the terrible venom case I had, into my soprano case, and the new processor arrived today, the replacement 3.2 ghz prescott. Both on the same day!

I am so happy,

And Idle temps at around 55 Celcius, better than 65

-Alex

Congratulations. However, 55 is still a little hot. I am used to 38*C idle.

He could have stock cooling. Unless you also have stock cooling, but either way....ehh....could be something as simple as his house is hotter or something
