I was mad enoght to do this and wanted to share that it is perfectly possible to have this machine be a Full Powered gaming machine with Whisper Quiet operation and Very Reasonable Temperatures. It took me a long way to come to this set up, I have wasted about two months adding up things and rebuilding the machine over and over again. I never had a clear idea of what I was doing but further I was going the crazyer it got. Goal was to achieve great temperatures and hear nothing but Hard Drive while playing in a quiet room deep at night. I have very picky hearing and even slightest noise from anywhere can annoy me to extremes. If I knew what I would do in the first place this would of taken me a few days. It came out a bit messy especially on the side of GPU Fan but CPU Fan Side came out perfect.
I am posting this an inspirational material and proof that its perfectly possible.
Temperatures with Ambient Temperature of 22C (No Fans, ACs and Closed Windows)
CPU: 36C Idle GPU: 39 Idle
CPU: 57C Full Load GPU: 66C Full Load
GPU was stressed with Unigine Heaven in Extreme Mode @ 1920x1080 for 6 Hours over night to determine Full Load temperature
SPECIFICATIONS
CPU: Intel Core i5-2500S 2.7GHz (3.7GHz Turbo) (Max TDP 65W) from Apple iMac 27"
GPU: PNY 670GTX with Prolimatech MK-13 Heatsink
STORAGE: Samsung 830 128GB SSD + Toshiba 1TB 2.5 5400RPM 9.5mm
FANS: Dual Noctua NF-P14 FLX 140mm with U.L.N.A. Adapter @ 750RPM + Tiny Stock 40mm Fan on PSU Board
PASTE: IC Diamond
