My cpu is going up to 80c before i killed all progs on it. I created a simple 4 threaded java program which causes all 4 cores to operate in an infinite loop. The temperature just keeps rising.
I cleaned the cpu and heatsink provided with the cpu and applied Arctic Silver 5 even used the exact instructions given on their website to ensure i got everything down right.
I am running a Intel Core 2 Quad.
The video card vents to the outside of the case.
The case has a giant powerful fan that does 1100 rpm blowing air in, and a smaller fan out front blowing air out. The case goes with intel's specs for how a case should be designed to give optimal ventilation.
The spec is here:

Except i am using a core 2 quad not a core 2 duo.
I am NOT attempting to overclock, I just need it operational.
When underclocked due to automatic voltage control on the MB, it runs at about 44-53c (1600mhz) when at full load i killed it at 80c.
Anyone got any ideas? BTW the cpu fan easily does 1200 rpm, and goes up to 1800 with no good effect...
