Ok so I built this pc about 5 months ago and it runs great. End of post. j/k

Anyhow I have a core i7 860 installed with the stock cooler and from bios the core temp avgs 46c. After windows loads the asus utility shows cpu temp at 38c and it never shows above 60c under load. So I'm not really concerned about it but was wondering if the 46c in bios was a little high for this processor?
Also I have a pretty good cooler master case with a few aditional fans but the side fan in front of cpu I installed and i have the airflow directed into the case is that correct? Essentially all fans blow into the case except the fan in back of pc and the psu fan.
I'm concerned about longevity on this system. When it dies I want it to be so far in the future that the internet can be accessed nuerally through nanobot technology.LOL:grin:

Fans =
Back, pulling hot air out of case and blowing it out the back.
Front, pulling cool air in to case.
Side, Pulling cool air in to the case.
Top, pulling hot air out of the case and blowing out the top (hot air rises normally)
