Ambient temperatures?

What are you using to see your temperatures?

welcome to overclock.net.
Fill out your computer specs under your user control panel.

Anyways, is your processor stock or currently overclocked? Also, what computer case and case fans do you have?

Lap the BT, get a higher CFM fan on it, and put some heatsinks on the top of the base... that will drop your idle by 10C.
