should i get a rear fan?

[viet_Cong]

hey my computer cpu idles around 30-40oc both core (amd athlon 64 x2 4000+) , but recently when the computer is on for the whole day it goes up to around 50oc. i got a 120mm front blue LED fan that intakes air,GPU fan, cpu fan, and a psu fan.

should i get a rear fan to blow out the hot air? is it worth it? also my GPU (geforce 9600 GSO) idles around 50oc is that too high?

Yeap, a rear top back exhaust fan will help pull the hot air out.

Your temps are fine

it wouldnt hurt to add another fan and may reduce your temps further

try reapplying thermal paste, clear dust and cable management. Then look at additional fans.

oh thanks guy! well everytime i turn on the computer the pc seems to be shaking and rumbling cuz of the front fan, think its time to oil if not ill buy a new fan.

though, at random times both my cores will just go high for like 20-30 minutes and go back down :/ well ill try to re-apply paste

thanks!

btw, what do you guys think? green, red ,or blue led fans?

blue led fans do look very nice I have them as they come standard with antec's line of computer cases.

well i think its time to change my front intake fan, everytime i turn on the computer the whole case rumbles/shakes and the fan makes a wierld loud noise.
