Hey mate,

Thanks for your fast reply. The case is normally opened because I'm always upgrading my computer. I know most of the case is dust free but I don't think I've ever cleaned the heatsink. The vanes/fan would definitely need a clean! I have hardly any programs running in the background. Because of the lag when I'm gaming I close everything I don't need. Even my windows vista sidebar. But yes, with everything closed and just BF2 running it was 84'C.

I will keep you updated if the temp reduces when I'm gaming.

Thanks again, Jake.
