I would like to know what temps you Celeron D 340 users are getting on air. The average temps I've found while googling this topic are about 35c to 39c. The lowest I've ever gotten while using speedfan 4.5 to max out the rpm on the HSF is 48c. The idle temp with the fan set at the system default speed is about 55c. I dont see how you can get 35c on air? I know that the HSF is a stock intel but it's massive. Anyway, lets hear those temps. I need to know if this normal or if something needs to be done to get it lower. Thanks.

Processor Specs:
Prescott Model:Celeron D 340 Frequency: 2.933Ghz
FSB: 533Mhz
Cache L2: 256k
Voltage: 1.287V-1.400V
Max Die Temp.: 67º C

Also, you folding folks might want to weigh in on this, it's probably F@H's fault my cpu temps are so high.:p
 
i have a 335(2.8 GHz) in my sff box, during the summer with warm ambient temps and running seti@home max load temp was 58C
idle temp was 45C

also this was with it oc'ed to 3.2 GHz

So 45c idle and 58c under load. I guess that's about the same as mine. Then again, you're OC'ed to 3.2ghz. That means I should run at least a few degrees cooler. What HSF are you using? What about thermal compound?

for a hsf i use an asus crux (oem cpu so no stock intel hsf): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835101203
i got it mainly because of clearence purposes

for thermal compound i use antec's "as5 like" silver thermal compound

Thanks for the advice. You won’t believe what I found under the heatsink. Keep in mind that this is an oem HP system. The socket, cpu and HSF was caked with a massive amount of thermal paste, so much that it had spilled over onto the mobo and in between the socket lever. No wonder it wasn’t cooling properly! I ran to the store and bought some AS5, then cleaned and conditioned everything per their website and applied the paste. I noticed immediately after booting up that the temps were about 3 degrees lower. Then I got to work on modding the case to add a side fan. I installed a vantec 80mm over the cpu and onboard video. The Celeron now runs 43c idle and 50c under load. w00t!
 
CeleronD 320 2.4ghz @ 2.93ghz 32C idle 58C load with prime95. removed tim and used cheap zalman thermal paste, stock heatsink and fan.
