Alright alright alright, one last thing. One thing i'm not sure of is how do you know how big your fan is? Probably a very stupid question, but I don't have a ruler that measures in mm's. Is that based on the size of your chip, or is up just up to you on which one you get?
 
Update

I went and bought some silver thermal compound, and applied it to the heatsink. First cleaning off the heatsink and the heat spreader on the cpu. after letting it turn on and get warm, and then turning it off and letting it cool to room temp for about 2 days now it has really seemed to keep a little more cool. Idle use to be at 130, now its from 110 to 115. With a load it topped out at 140, now it's down to about 125. I'm still in need of a good fan, and i do believe i will go for a newer all copper heat sink. If anyone has any recomendations it needs to be
socket 478, cooling a celeron d 2.5 ghz processor..


I have a side question, Would the Pentium 4 2.8 ghz ht p4 CPU work with the intel i845g chipset, d845gvsr5 model motherboard.
 
After reading through some of the other threads on this site i've found that the chip i mentioned wont work with the chip set i mentioned.
 
130F is only 54.4 Celsius, which is totally within the normal range for that board and CPU. I wouldn't worry until it is well over 65 Celsius.
You might want to clean your fan, and replace your thermal paste as a precaution.
