First of all, here are my specs:
Intel C2D E6600
2GB PC2-6400
ATI X1900XT
535W ENERMAX
All at stock speeds
Now, the problem I have is that my CPU is running extremely hot and I have no idea why this is happening. I have checked the temperature of it with many programs, including Core Temp, SiSoftware Sandra, RightMark CPU Clock and TAT, and they are all showing that the temperature is around 75-80. I have looked around in my case and the airflow is fine and is fitted with 2 120mm fans and 1 90mm fan with the stock heatsink. The air is cool inside but when I touch the heatsink, it is boiling hot and I have no idea why. Can someone help me out with what I can do to resolve this problem, perhaps get new 120+90mm fans and heatsinks, if so, any reccomendations? Thermal paste? I really don't know..
