    CPU getting alittle hot!!!

    Hi

    I have the following processor in my sig, i havnt changed anything to do with its cooling like compound ETC

    Today it was running on CS at 48.c and 39.c ideling on BF2 it wasnt to far off that either.

    Id like some recommend ations what i should do shall i change the thermal compound if yes how do i do that, my heatsink already had it on so i didnt learn how to do it.

    If a new heatsink is what is needed what do you recommend i use?

    thanks
    matt

    p.s. my case as 3 92mm fans and 2 80mm fans so its ventilated well

        emmmm, yes im still using the stock heatsink, i have a machine running at about 35.c with the same cpu while gaming but that room is cooler than my room (where my pc is based)

        i thought about this one:http://www.arctic-cooling.com/cpu2.p...1&data=6&disc=

        as it cheap i can get it for under £10!!!

        and at this point acording to MSI's cool and quiet utlilty its a 42.c idleing
