I have a Socket 478. that 70C is just browsing forums/websites, like I said, I can't play games. Argh, both cooler and PSU, going to cost me a fair bit
.
Funny thing was, this only started happening immediately after I did a disk cleanup/defragmentation. Maybe just a coincidence?
As for full system specs:
ASRock P4VT8+ Motherboard
2.2 Gig Celeron (Don't really need a more powerful one yet, I only play old games; starcraft, warcraft 3 etc)
512 DDR Ram
Radeon 9550 128mb
450w PSU

Take the heatsink off and make sure the paste isn't melted off. And you removed the fan and cleaned It?
I really don't want to do that, it was the biggest pain in the backside putting it on. It's some asaka one I think, the levers would barely fit into the sides (where you press them down and it clicks into place)
Also, I checked BIOS and it said my CPU was running at 40 C.
And I'm in the UK. Thanks for the help, I appreciate it
