my temperatures are too high

[Huskerwr38]

I looked at my temperatures and it said cpu temp was 50C and my system temp was 44C and this was at start up. Not under load at all. I know this is too high. Also, my video card is at 88C and the ambient temp is at 55C. I have a AMD 64 3500 with a NVIDIA Geforece 6800GT. Im thinking about opening up my case and putting a regular room fan next to it. Also, I dont think I have my fans set up right. I only have 1 fan in the back. And thats it. How should I set up my fans? Thanks

Your temps seem a bit high, just to make sure you should try a bios update. U should probly have a fan in the front for sure blowing in & if temps are still high add where ever else your case supports it.

what kind of case do you have? how many fans? the regualar fan next to it would work really well, but it would be loud as hell, and just that annoying.

When you are running high end stuff like that, you need at least an intake and an exhaust fan. Make sure you have room in your case for good airflow.

also make sure you use 1.8 official bios, it fixes a lot of the temp bugs on the neo2
