I have a problem with my system. I am thinking the temps are idling too high but don't think the hsf is the problem. I switched out the hsf 2x and even applied some artic silver each time. It still reports the same temps. It idles at around 50-55C. When I bring up simple things like the zune player or a flash movie the temps skyrocket to 65-69C.
