At Home Your CPU Temp

Hi all, I have seen many threads about CPU temps and i have had a look and have not been able to find one that doesnt discuss temps without a problem that someone is having.

So i would like everyone that is interested to
1) State the specs your Whole system
2) State your CPU temp Under idle
3) State your CPU temp under full load (100% cpu useage)
4) State what you motherboard temp on average is
5) State what type of cooling that you are using (HSF, Watercooling, etc)
6) State any unstandard modifications eg. overclocking (sorry didn't really know how to put this one)
7) State how many fans that you have all up that are helping to cool your computer
8) State what sort of paste that you are using to help cool the CPU (if you are using any)
9) State what program that you are using to read these temps


Okay heres all the answers to these questions for me:
1) AMD Athlon 1800+
512MB PC2700 DDR RAM
GF4 64MB MX440
Seagate 80GIG HDD 7200 RPM
300W PSU
Epox 8k3a+ Mobo
2) Under idle my CPU temp averages 32C. Allthough during the day if I open my window and let my room be cold i can get it down t 25C
3) Under full load it gets to around 37 - 38C
4) My motherboardt temp is usually arounf about 26C
5) I am using an Aero Cool 7 HSF
6) No overclocking or modifications have been done
7) I have one Case fan that is acting as an exhaust fan that is at the back of the computer below the PSU. And i have my 2 speed 15cm desk fan hanging off the side of my case. (the side panel has been taken off)
8) I am not sure what the paste i have is, it's just some basic paste that I got for $1
9) The program that I use to read my CPU temp is MBProbe 1.30

It also wouldnt hurt to chuck in somewhere the room temp of where your computer is situated, mine is usually around 21C.

Please everyone, get involved in this, I would really like to see what other people have to say about there temps.

Also, if this has been done before I am sorry, maybe the people that didn't get involved in the previous ones can get involved in this one.

Thanks all,
PastranA

1) Athlon Thunderbird 1ghz
512MB PC133
4mb Trident Graphics
Samsung 40gb 5400rpm HDD
230W PSU
ECS K7S5A Pro Mobo
2) When idle it is around 107F/42C.
3) Don't know about full load because I just built this system yesterday.
4) System temp is around 75F/24C.
5) Using the stock fan from my Athlon XP 2600.
6) It's just a plain jane system w/ no overclocking done.
7) I have no case fans because there is no place to put one hence this is an old case (from a slot P2 300mhz). I am planning to put in a PCI slot fan today or tomorrow for it though.
8) Just used an Antec thermal pad.
9) I used the BIOS to get my temps.

Maxtor 40gb 7200rpm 2mb HDD
Seagate 6gb 5400rpm 2mb HDD
350w Enermax PSU
Epox 8RDA+
2)When idle it is around 128F/53C.
3) When it is under a full load it is 140F/60C.
4) System temp is around 104F/40C.
5) Using a Volcano 11 which is usually set to around 2500rpm.
6) No overclocking but, I have added a Vantec Iceberq (copper one) to the northbridge and southbridge, I have added Tweakmonster RAMsinks to the mosfets, cold cathode light, glow in the dark round cables, and some lights that change colors lining the front of the case.
7) I have 4 80mm case fans. 3 are intake and 2 are exhaust (two is counting the PSU). Usually only one is one because that is the the automatic temp sensor that controls my fans wants it to have on.
8) Using an Antec thermal pad.
9) Used MBM 5.
