my rig as below:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q8400 running @ default clock speed which is 2.66Ghz
2GBx2 DDR3 1333Mhz RAM
MSI MS7519 P45-C51 motherboard
500GB 32MB WD green HDD
Sapphire ATI HD4770 GPU
Cooler Master Power Plus 500Watt PSU
Cooler Master Elite 333 chassis
i'm facing CPU temperature problem
55-62 degree celcius on idle
85-103 degree celciue on full load/gaming/flash game
may i know how to solve this problem? its too hot i guess
(using original Intel normal heatsink)
thanks

Hi Brandon, you can always reapply the thermal paste...or u can re-check the HSF mounting...Maybe the CPU and HSF is not proper mounted.

i've plan to change the heatsink
Cooler Master Vortex Plus CPU cooler
will it solve the temperature problem effectively?

Just get the Corsair H50 or H70 Hydro cooler. You'll be amazed with it's result. MY Q6600 overclocked to 3.1Ghz is idling at 35C now.
