Serious? I tried that, fried CPU.

My case temp (the only value my reader has) idle is between 20-23 C... under stress around 25-28 C. The highest Ive ever gotten is 29 C.

What cooling method are you using?

what cooling system are you using? must not be air, thats below room temperature (about 19-20C = 68F)
im thinkin if you're just using a fan then it must be reading temps wrong

btw my idle temp is 37C and load (thats right, both processor's in full load) is 42C @ 2.4ghz... im using a 92mm vantec thermaflow temp controlled fan. works nice and quiet :) (as opposed to my old vantec tornadoe which practically made my computer take off, even on a controller, though temps were better... more like 29C on high)

100% sustained CPU load: 40°C

Summer room temp of 32°C, minimum 90% relative humidity:
Idle: 39°C

I'm idling right now at 40°C but it would be lower if I actually had a ceiling fan in my room to keep my room temperature lower. Texas heat sucks.

well, the ceiling fan dosent actually make the room cooler.. ( it dosent produce colder air actually makes it warmer since it circulates the warm, since hot air rises, air down and produces heat it self from the motor) the feeling that its cooler is the air running across your skin.

idle 32 load 40 Amd 64 3200
