CPU temperature and Motherboard temperature

[titus12]

My CPU temperature reads 7 degrees higher than the motherboard. I put in a
new power supply, and the temperature of the motherboard would go from 38C
to 47C and remain. The CPU temperature sometimes is equal to the
motherboard temperature; It would go as high as 57C. Should I get a new
Heat Sink? I have a P4 430 3.0MHz processor on an Asus P5GD2-X motherboard
with a Thermolake 430 w power supply.

Thank you,

For a P4, that's fine. The CPU normally runs hotter than the motherboard.
If it ran cooler, I'd probably be worried.

This has nothing to do with the OS.

Can't you get the message? No one gives a flying ****.

Now get back to your homework.
