    CPU running hot

    So, this morning when i booted up my comp all was going well until I saw my CPU Temp (through Speed Fan) and it was sitting @ 59 C ... which is about 10 C higher then normal. I dont know why the sudden jump, I have gone in and cleaned the little dust that existed, made sure the CPU HS+F was seated and hooked up properly, and it is still continuing to run in the 59 - 64 C range which has me a little worried. Can anybody think of any reason why this could be? Any help is appreciated

    Did you remove the heat sink?

      Nope, just made sure it was fastened properly, which it was.

            No idea, unless when you checked it you knocked it and it moved it just enough to cause this. Might be best to reseat it, do you have anymore thermal paste to do so?
