Hardware advice

Here are my specifications : intel core 2 quad 2.4 GHZ processor , Nvidea geforce 9500GT (1gb) graphic card , 500GB hard disk , 8GB ram
cooling system : air cooled
my motherboard reaches 50 degrees celcius and my graphic card reaches 74 degrees celcius... i'm asking if that is too hot or if i should cool it more...

A quick poke around google, and it looks a little hot. to me. http://www.pantherproducts.co.uk/Articles/CPU/CPU%20Temperatures.shtml
You should probably look for your exact processor.

None of those is my processor, but it isn't the processor i'm worried about , it's my motherboard! it reaches 50 degree celcius just by sitting around doing nothing, it used to reach 41 at max when gaming :S
and my nvidea graphic card is also heating up while doing nothing on it... when i used to game it was like 60 degree maximum! now it's around 72 - 74 degrees ceclius
i should probably open the computer and clean the fans up!

heh, I don't know where I got cpu temp. :mad:
But google tells me the motherboard temp is too high, and the graphics is borderline too. I would cjeck the manufactures site to be sure.
