Default Re: CPU remains overheated...........tried many options!!!!!.

Sam I got finally today Zebronics Peace cabinet & Zeb 500 watt platinum power supply & eagerly changed the mobo & hdd to the new caby...................................but but but my temp still remain the same 50-54 ideal, no over clocking at all & at fullload (No OC applied) TAT load test makes it 74-76C, that too high.
This PSU gets mounted upside down so the big fan air flow is downwards, I am not sure ifthats ok or not, I feel it should be upwards.

If I OC then it will go beyong 60 ideal & at full load 80-85C,

I also tested another graphic card just in case that might be the cause, but no chnage in ideal temp.

Its surely either the mobo or the intel heat sink seems to be faulty, though my test images show it looks fine.

Now the only 2 things left are intel HSF & asus mobo.................cant think of anything else.
