Hello. I bought a new computer with an AMD phenom II 955 about 2 years ago, and ever since I got it the temprature of the CPU was pretty hot.. When I played BF3 it sometimes reached 80 degrees.. So a few months ago I changed the CPU cooler to Mugen 3, which I read is a very good fan. The temps improved, but it's still quite hot. On idle the temps are about 48 degrees, and when I play some games it reaches 70 degrees sometimes.. Does that make sense? Because as I said I thought this fan would be very good at cooling.. Do you think there is something wrong with the CPU?
