built a new i7 950 system ,bought a h50 cause i rushed into it.

no overclock running at 38-40c idle , thought id add 2 akasa viper fans ( 12 quid each ) to drop the temps so i can oc to 4ghz , added the new fans and ive got the EXACT SAME temps as i did with 1 stock corsair.

how can this be lmao.

1) What is your ambient temperature?
2) Do a new test, record idle temps, then record the temps @ load with Prime 95, post them here.

EDIT

Oh, and Shady, how did you align the fans?
