I was using an XP1700+ with a DD Maze 4 and a VIA 2600(45.5watts max) pump. I just ran the comp as I would normally and the temp didn't get above 45C. I started gamming and the temps when up to 50C (temps taken from Type K thermocoupler). I left the comp on for 24 hours idle and the temps didn't rise much. It worked but it certainly is not performace orinetated. You are not going to get performance and quiet. It is one or the other.
