i'm just pissed off at my cpu.
cpu temp that is.
I got (P3 700).
When I play game, temp hit like 42c, when I'm not doing anything 36c.
This is with cover off.
I did so much, spent so much cash to cool this thing yet I'm not changing anything.
First I got alpha PEP 66, then ok better cooler, so i got Headghog, still nothing changed, then i got delta fan to blow harder, then i got holesaw to put holes on my case to blow out more heats, no change.
Then i got articsilver, still no change.
Damn it!
I'm just wondering... is it normal for P3 700mhz NOT OVERCLOCKED AT 933mhz to be at 36~42c?
And i'm not even playing any heavy stuff like Q3,
all i ever play is Sims, CS, and D2.

Mine is at 28-30 degrees when idle. How about your room temperature???. You can not cool it below roomtemp. Have you encountered any problems I mean does it hang or anything??. If not why bother???.
