    hi I'm new to your forum and am seeking help with an overheating cpu.
    Temperature of cpu as I post 52c and core temp 51c.
    I have replaced the thermal paste with a slight reduction in temp to the present readings but not enough.
    The fan details are as follows: D60188 - 001 CE.

    INTEL
    260 832 95

    FHP-7543 REV.A

    12 VDC 0.60A
    FUJIKURA

    My question is, Is it possible to fit a more powerful fan, to help remove excess heat or maybe a bigger heat sink?
    Not being to clever with the bits and pieces within my black box, ... I seek your help and advice. :p
    Kind regards

    52c for a CPU is a perfectly normal running temperature, you shouldn't worry about it.

    Thanks Voodoo3 for the very quick response.

    I am somewhat surprised and also pleased at this answer.
    I downloaded 'Speedfan' and it displays a flame against both the CPU and Core suggesting that these temperatures were too high hence my concern.
    Kind regards Scar_UK
