yeah im using the intel supplied heat sink offcourse but u have to take care that CPU heats up when there is load on it like encoding long video clips and stuff.. cpu temps r considerably low when pc is idle...
i see cpu temps hitting 55C when encoding a 20min video clip from DivX to windows media format using windows media encoder..
if u have quite many fans in ur case that ur case sounds like a hover craft. then u will offcourse not have heating problems.. i want quiet computing to i just have one 80mm extra fan in the case plus the default fan of power supply..
here is a small tip which works for me.. a flexible rubber/plastic duct whose one side is attaced to the cpu fan air inlet and other end leads outside the case.. his enables the fan to take air directly of ur room ambient temp rather than circulating the same warm in the case..this worked for me enough that i dont need another solution but downside that i had to rip a hole in a case..probably i would hook another 80mm fan at the opening of the duct outside the case and attach a dust filter on it to aviod dust accumulation..
ohh and i am not over clocking
