THAT's REALLY BAD, what's wrong with you people!*$@(# My room temp. is over 103+ degrees fahrenheit. Yet my Pentium 4 560 still runs at 49-54 degrees celcius at idle with stock cooling and no ac, 1 case fan, psu has passive cooling. SO that's very unnormal dude. SUggest you invest in more case fans, perhaps a better heatsink/fan, etc. You should be getting below 50 degrees celcius with that processor.
