Serious Cooling problems

[lucifersam]

Im running a 3.2Ghz prescott and as you can probably see i have recently been folding. i have had to stop this because since i started i have noticed that temps are reaching the low 70s, i have tried hoovering, putting the orignal stock cooler in which makes no difference except that it is successfully drowns out my 300watt stereo. Anyone got any ideas this is starting to worry me.

What HSF are you using? what thermal paste?

i'd try a re-seat then just a general air-flow check

im using akasa paste intel stock HSF tried also using akasa ak-675 HSF also tried reseating as HSF has been changed, even with side of case off still getting high temps
