Very sad. I seriously hate Intel HSF push pin style. My motherboard is bend now.
Like the picture below, dented mobo:
Also, my temperature rises up to 44C during idle time. At average load, the temperature is near 60C. This is consider relatively high for my E4700 since I have not overclock the CPU yet.
I am definitely going to change my PC casing since it pretty sucks big time. The PSU is SUPER NEAR my mobo. I have heat dissipation problem too because of the lousy casing structure. Don’t ask me why I get this casing last time.
I am also going to get a LGA775 back-plate for my mobo, eliminating push-pin style! Moreover, I am considering to buy CoolerMaster Hyper 212 Heat Sink Fan to replace my stock HSF. I hope all these will change my temperature.
If everything is success, I will also try overclocking my E4700 to 3.0Ghz. This will certainly improve my computer “horsepower”!
