    I did a repaste on my system with gelid and undervolted it to -140. Idle temps are at 47c ish. This is with 1.0.12 and fan curves are pretty silent not that i am complaining but with hwinfo64 on and fans at custom i get lower temps around 35-38. I was wondering if its worth it to leave it as is or go with the "custom fan curve" on the hwinfo64. I also leave the power plan/management to high performance all the time.
