HELLO FRIENDS I AM NITIN FROM DEHRADUN INDIA AN HARDCORE GAMER .
I HAVE RECENTLY PURCHASED A SYSTEM AS FOLLOWS
1- AMD PHENOM X2 550
2-ASUS M4A78-EM/1394 MOTHERBOARD
3-POWERCOLOR HD 4870 1 GB GDDR5 GPU
4-KINGSTON 2 GB DDR2 RAM
5-TAGAN U37 600WATT PSU
6-SEAGATE 80GB IDE HARDDRIVE

FROM THE DAY I HAD ASSEMBLED AND OPERATED THE SYSTEM I HAD NOTICED ON THE BIOS THAT WITHIN 15 MINUTES TEMPERATURE OF
CPU AT 48 DEGREES AND MOTHERBOARD AT 52 DEGREES UNDER IDLE STATE .
WHEN I START PLAYING GAMES AFTER FIFTY MINUTES THE BIOS SHOWS CPU AT 59 DEGREES AND MOTHERBOARD AT 63 DEGREES.
[NO CPU OR GPU OVERCLOCK INFACT ON AUTO MODE]
I HAD CALLED AMD INDIA THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PHENOM X2 550 CAN REACH UPTO 80-90 DEGREES NORMALLY WITHOUT BURNING AND SO 60 DEGREES IS NORMAL FOR SUCH CPU.
AND ASUS INDIA TOLD ME THAT THIS MOTHERBOARD CAN REACH UPTO 75 DEGREES NORMALLY THEY SUGGESTED ME TO PUT A CHASSIS FAN ON MY CABINET FOR COOLING WILL IT WORK ?

NOW PLEASE TELL ME IS IT NORMAL TEMPERATURES OF CPU 60 DEGREES AND MOBO 65 DEGREES FOR SUCH SYSTEM CONFIGURATION?
WHAT SHOULD I DO NOW I AM HOPEFUL AND EAGERLY AWAITING GENUINE HELP PLEASE HELP.

To start with, you don't need to use all caps as that's considered yelling and rude.

What's your room temperature? That can have a significant impact on your system's temperatures.

I don't think he intend to be rude there :)

but yeah, all CAPS is hard to read and imply you are yelling.

So don't type in all CAPS.

Anyway, my thought is exactly the same as GhislainG, what's your room temperature?

I expect India to be a hot country?

if your room temperature is 38c, then I'll say your CPU's temp is just about normal if you are using stock cooler.

hello now i am buying a cooler master mid tower cabinet since it comes with front back and panel options to fix a fan where is the most appropriate to place it because i dont want too many fans.
i am also going to re apply my cpu thermal compound ie cooler master how much should i apply and is it important to spread it.
how should i clean my cpu dice and hsf i got 70 % isopropyl available in medical store would it be sufficient or acitone which would be better.
