Hello
I am running ASUS p4p800 Deluxe with a 512 mb of Corsair Xtreme memory ( the p4 is set to run with HT ), I am using the Vantec AeroFlow VP4. My question is this, when I am doing simple stuff on my PC such as browsing the web or so the CPU temperature is arouns 96F, however when I started a game ( NBA Live 2004 ) the temperature went up to 113F, is this typical? or should i look for another CPU cooler?
I am also running a TI 4600 for video card.

Thank you for any suggestions.

When you put the cpu under load, such as playing a game, the temp will go up. The Aeroflow is a terrific unit, a good compromise between cooling and noise, and a lot better than the retail unit.

Your temps are just fine. The Aeroflow is a good unit, mine keeps an overclocked, overvolted Athlon XP 2500+ at ~55C even with the fan partially turned down.
