Is there any reason my idle temps should have changed from the low 30's to upper 40's to mid 50's? I havn't so much as moved the computer, but the temps have been much higher today. proc. is a 2500+ w/ a SLK-900A and 80mm fan
 
If there is no change externally, then I'd definitely say you've got a fan problem. Check all your fans, hit them with some compressed air and the HS while you're at it. I'd say you've got some sort of restriction somewhere since you didn't touch the case and had that huge of an increase in temps.

Or, lil' brother may have upped some voltages, heh.
 
Do you have any background services that are running that are chewing up like 100% CPU usage or anything..... ?

Did the fan stop working or is it cloged with dust.....?

Is the computer near a heatvent that was opend... or somthing that makes heat that dident before.....???

Cheak those things out and see what happens.
 
the fans are all working and clean. i just got them about a week ago. CPU usage hasn't gone over 15%. i've run AVG and spybot s&d and come up with nothing. its down to 37 right now, but it often jumps up for a while.
 
I'd say if it's jumping every once in a while then you have some service starting and running periodically. Might want to keep an eye on that.
 
Where are you from Chunk??? I think it's just the weather change here in norcal (winter) I was getting 30-33C Idle temps(Not actually Idle I leave my WinFast TV always on)... But now that's its nearing summer time mine is up 43C Idle temps(All my filters are clogged up hehe Kinda lazy right now prolly my SP-94 is clogged up too.
