If I had overclocked it I would be okay with it as well, but I haven't done that yet and thought it might be a bit hot considering that the review ones run 10 - 15 degrees cooler
usually around 20 - 25 degrees
Yes I know, but I would still like it to be quiet enough so I can't hear it (atleast when idle).
I will try and replace the thermal paste anyways, since I want to paint the shroud red (got a red and black theme)
Thanks anyways for the tips. I'll report back when I changed the thermal paste and completed my mod.
