It is a Pentium D 3.4 and is running at 49 -51 deg c all the time. I had it doing a compression of 155 Gb folder that took 2 days and cpu was at 80 -100% the whole time but the temp never moved. Do you think the reading is accurate?
Now it is at 1 -2 % and still reading 49 - 51
The PC is running fine, still fast, even when compressing the folder the speed was ok. Not worried at all.
I thought while the pc was under load the temps would climb a bit, but the fan stayed at the same rpms 1700 - 1900 max

Any thoughts? or is my pc running sweet as

Ds run hot anyway, so just make sure you have the heatsink mounted properly, cleared of dust and it will be fine.

Dust is cleared regularly. Cheers
