I'm just curious... at what CPU temperature & system temperature should I become worried? I recently purchased my high-end Pentium 4 system.. over the past couple days (during hot weather), I have noticed that the CPU temperature went as high as 60C and the system temperature went beyond 40C. Should I consider additional fans, if so does anyone have brand/type suggestions? I've heard that brand&placement of fans are more important than quantity.
if your case has a place to mount an aux fan, I'd get one and see if that helps. its pretty typical for your CPU core temp to be about 20C above case ambient, but 40C is a high case temp, so moving more fresh air through the system will hugely help the CPU heatsink/fan do its job.
