I hit some high temps. But only once in a while.

Last response: in CPUs

So recently I upgraded my PC. My temps when I put my stock heatsink in were around 70c at idle. After getting a new heatsink my temps are fine. Then I started rendering videos. My heatsink right now at idle is around 35-45c but when I render the temp get to the upper 80s and 90s. Is this alright to do just for a hour a day? Is there anyway I can have sony vegas not use so much from my CPU so the temps dont go so high? Why are my temps spiking up so high? Thanks for your help.

I bought a new heatsink, Its a simple 20$ one. But should be fine for just a regular non-overclocked CPU. I think I might have found the problem. On another forum I found out this guys motherboard overclocked his motherboard automatically. Just so happens he has the same CPU and motherboard as me. So after im done rendering im going to take a look into that.

Well after giving my PC a quick opening up, Cleaning out some dust, Taking out my heatsink and reinstalling it. So far about 4 minutes into rendering were staying at a even 45-55c Not bad. Thanks you guys for your solutions. I guess I just needed to open up the case for a bit and tweek some things.
