Following on from the Reccomendation for a Cooler PC thread, How hot is your CPU?

At the moment, on my new PC (XP2200+ ... 1.8ghz).. The core is running at 31deg Idle. Under load 42 Maximum so far.. Im using artic silver compound with an Aero 7 Lite Fan.

Like homealone said, the thermals pads supplied with the heatsink are crap, I washed mine off straight away.

My XP1600+ .. (1.4ghz) runs at 43 idle, and about 50 under load.
