Hello all. I increased the voltage slightly to make it more stable. Now that I have done that, I have noiced that the temp is hovering around between 50 to 52 degrees Celsius. Am I running too hot, and what should I do? I have an older Pent 4 2.4 GHz and just one fan. What should I do? Thanks.

Can you give specs on the rest of your system? What kind of cooling are you using?
