I run at high 50's to low 60's under full load idle at 34 to 38.Your temps seem good for a stock cooler.I'm a little bit over clocked though.For the money I would try out that bracket but you just have to post the results there are a lot of AMD owners would love to have that info.

Download OCCT, run a test, and see what the temps look like.

will leave it running for the auto time of an hour while I'm sleeping and then post up some shots.

otherwise the temperature dosent seem to go above 50*C under a gaming load, granted Dawn of War 2 and World of Warcraft arn't exactly the most intensive games you can play, however the temperature stabilized throughout and dropped as low as even 38*C on the stock heatsink during idle after gameplay

Bleh, I read the other guy's sig rig . Yeah, the bracket will help you out.

That bracket is awesome. Check my sig for the pictures. Also be ready to buy some nuts.

One more thing: do you really need 3 sticks? I think it's kinda screwing up the idea of dual channel.

Mid 50s temps are completely fine, for load temps.

Your in the "Ok" range up to about 60c really. With a good cooler you will see a big difference though.

Even with my cheap cooler things stay really cool! The 45nm chips usually only idle a few degrees above room temperature with a good cooler.
