Intel E2180 2.00 Ghz
BFG Geforce 8800GT OC
Asus Vento A8 Case
2gig ram @ 667

You have one case fan?

Use speedfan to determine what temps your system is. Then post the results.. This will give you a good idea on how effective yor cooling is.

You've only got a E2180 cpu and not overclocked, it's not going to be putting out a lot of heat, unless your computer is in a sealed box I doubt temps are a problem.

Are these idle temps?

If not try running some heavy applications like CPC benchmarks, Orthos Prime or 3dmark 06.. and monitor the temps in the same way.
