I have a amd 3400 BE my cpu temp was at 100 c so I bought a new cpu fan. It is now at 60 how cani lower it. I have only one exhaust fan and the cover is off. Should I put the cover back on. It is sitting ina desk with the front and rear open and1 1/2 inches clearance on both sides. Any help would be great
 
Solution
go through and make sure your heat sink is tightened as far as you can go with out over torquing the screws. did you re apply thermal paste?

I bought a new bigger cpu cooler and fan. it is sitting around 59 Cel idling just internet running. Should i put in a newer exhaust fan and put the sides back on the case.
