over heating problem(keep money down if needed)

Hi, well I dont kno wmuch about over heating, but I THINK this is a little too hot? You tell me. These are my parts.http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16835888309- Slot exhaust, right under the GPU(so it exahust any heat either ocming up from sound card or any heat it can from the GPU, which is X-Fi Fatala1ty Pro and eVGA 8800GTS 320mb)http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811119068- Case.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835118019 - CPU Cooler/Fan/Heatsink Assembly.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835129238- Front Case fan In-take.http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835705002 - Rear Case fan Exhaust.My CPU run at 33-38 normal, and when gaming it goes to around 45-48C. What should I do? Currently both case fans run at silent. I can put them on Optimal but it doesnt make too big a diffence. Maybe put it on full?(damn front case fan is loud, but if it helps..) Anyhow I dont even know if these temprature are considered hot(but I have a gut feeling they are). Maybe rework the layout of fans? take out something? if I gotta buy something you guys tell me, just dont go crazy :P currently Im saving for water cooling, but thats gonna be a while.If it even matters my motherboard is Asus AM2 M2N-SLI DELUXE nForce 570 Mobo.over heating problem(keep money down if needed)
Hey man, don't worry! :) All temperatures in your PC are all right.. it's even very good, and if you can reduce fan speeds (for lower noise) - do it!over heating problem(keep money down if needed)
Theres absolutely nothing wrong with any of those temps.
I'd have to agree with everyone... there are no problems with your temps. My OC'ed e6750 is running at around 45C at full load right now, and I have no problems bumping it up a little bit more. If you're still worried though, here are some tips.
  1. Cable Management - Cable ties, time, and patience are key. Good cable management is important as cluttered cables block airflow around the case. I spent a couple hours redoing the cabling on my new rig yesterday as I was not happy with my original work. My CPU temps went down 2 - 3C, my GPU temps went down a good 5 - 7C, and my MOBO temps went down ALOT, up to 10C
  2. Airflow - Airflow is important. You need to have at least one intake and one exhaust case fans (Not including CPU, GPU, etc. fans). Also, make sure that there is more air being blown out the exhaust than there is being sucked in. Its more important to get rid of the hot air or the case will stay hot.
  3. TIM - Stands for Thermal Interface Material. Use Artic Silver 5, and don't apply too much, a thin layer is all that's needed.
  4. Aftermarket - If you really need to, either get one or a better one (Aftermarket coolers). I recommend Zalman.

Oh ok then, I guess my temps are fine :) I was very worried. but yeah cable management is a problem I admitt. Ill look into somehow getting them..Managed. I think my only problem really is cable management. I wouldn tmind an extra 2-7Cs :P Thanks alot guys.
your cpu should be able to go well over 60c before encountering any problems.
