CPU Temperature?

[SocceRich20]

Hello. I have a Pentium 4 2.8 GHz Processor with an 800MHz front side bus. I have "Hardware Doctor" installed. It says the my cpu temperature is around 50C when doing small tasks. Is this too high? How can I cool it more, is there a way to turn up my fans? I have a top fan. A back fan with a cover that aims towards the cpu. The cpu has a fan of course. The power supply has 2 fans. Thanks for your help.

what do you mean by ''top fan " you can also add a fan in the front of teh case at the bottom , if the case has a spot for it . also you can replace the heatsink on the cpu for better cooling . is your pc a "brand" name pc or did you build it or a local company do it for you . your temps are ok , not great but ok you could stand to do something to make it run cooler but i don't think you are in the range where you have to worry about the temps .

It is probably fine. Check in the bios. The reading by Hardware Doctor is probably off.
