hi im just wondering about my cpu temps too see if there normal or not. i have a amd athlon 2x4 640 proccesor which will idle at 32 but when i open up browsers and watch a video its goes to 40/45. i no its not too bad but i recently bought a new corsair case and have 6 corsair fans in my rig. when i bought this i was expecting really low temperatures but i havent really notcied a diffrence at all. had trouble in the past with cpu overheating so i have a little obsession with trying to lower temps as much as possible. have a stock cooler on my cpu btw! thanks for reading!

an 8-13 degree increase in core temp when you load up the processor a bit sounds reasonable. The base 32C depends a lot on ambient temps - how warm is your room?
If you want to really test the temps try

and see how warm things get
