E6400 running temperatures

[webmonkeyuk]

Just got myself Crysis & COD4 and ive been keeping an eye on my cpu temps, ive got the game settings on medium & low and the temperatures have been running at high 50's & the highest ive seen is 63 on both cores. would you say this is high?

Run Orthos as playing games is not fully stressing your cpu.

Did some video encoding on the new rig with a E6400 chip and it did not go above 32oC, but it is sitting under a Artic 7 pro.

My E6400 running at 3.4GHz hits around 65 with Orthos.

That's a lapped CPU with a Tuniq Tower.

That does not sound like a load temp to me.

This was the highest temp from what I could see on 'fan-speed programme'. should I be looking elsewhere ?
