The fact that using a household fan has reduced the temp by such a large amount indicates you have a serious cooling problem, switching to a pentium would not fix that. Is the heatsink/fan rated high enough for the processor?Quote:

thats what MBM shows right now, Maybe I should just get a Pentium :lol:
Thoroughly clean all the dust off the fan and heatsink (a toothbrush is useful for this), then clean the heatsink in alcohol. Remove all traces of the existing thermal paste from the bottom of the heatsink and from the processor, then apply a small amount of fresh paste to the processor (just the central die) immediately before re-assembling everything.
Why dont just replace the fan with a top-end one and solve all your problems.
