Default My X2 5400 is running too hot

Wes Newell:

Your case temp2 is way too high if it's accurate. CPU being only 18C
above that during load isn't bad. You could duct the cpu fan to the
side panel, or install a front intake fan. Either should help.


When you say duct tape to the side, do you mean create a tunnel so the CPU
fan is drawing outside air over the processer? That sounds like a good
idea.

Tomorrow I'll open it up and see about fitting a front intake fan.
