hello guys
i am using a C2D 2.66GHZ with asus p5n-mx. i have asus pc probe2 software which shows core voltages
and temperatures. when i start my pc, it is upto 38 but after i work or play games (mostly) it becomes 50-52 degrees.
is it safe for system?
same goes for my gpu i have 9400gt and its temp is mostly above 70 degrees
it doesnt have any cooling fan
any suggestions

Use RealTemp for CPU temperature.
CPU temperature is safe up to 70ºC.
GPU temperatures:

80-90ºC is average
115ºC is threshhold
127ºC burnout

wow man im assuming your are talking celcius. i think your cpu is fine although mine never goes past 34 c when im playing games for your video card im not so sure you need to get a fan on it or itl be bad and you'll start to lose performance. i have 5 fans 3 case fans 1 cpu fan and a gpu fan i suggest you upgrade your card to like a 9800 gtx.
