I Think that I have cooling problem with my P4 processor.
At this moment the processor has 60°C (140°F) and the CPU cooling fan is running at 5200 rpm. I think those values are big and I don't know how to fix it.
When my PC is idle the processor has a temperature of 53°C (128°F)

I'm currently using the original cooler that was packed with the processor and at 5200 rpm it makes a lot of noise.

Could it be MB problems or could it be Power source problems?

I hope you guys can help me!

Regards

Horacio

Did you use fresh thermal paste?

Thanks IronDuke. Yes I´ve applied it yesterday but no results.

I'll assume this is a prescott core?
They run very hot :hotbounce ,(new ones too) even when not OC'd.
I took the plunge with mine and went liquid cooling.
Your temp is not as hot as I've heard prescotts can run.
90°c seems to be the max and a major concern. :hotouch:

Are you getting heat related problems, BSOD, lock ups etc.?

There are many heat management solutions, from:

1.Larger heatsink & fan {80mm+}
2.heatpipe fanless technology
3.liquid cooling
4.And the extreme, submersion in glyceryn or mineral oil
5.Cryonically sealed

I recommend either 1 or 3.
Try re-seating your hsf with fresh thermal paste (artic silver 3 or 5)
Blow out any dust from hsf. Maybe take a closer look into your case
airflow.
