Does defragmenting pc reduce temperature

[Dredrox]

Okay, so i dont realy have any problems with pc right now, reason why i post this is that i am kinda curious about this one thing and checking does someone have experiance with it.

My CPU temperature were 55-60*c stable does not matter is it standby or load, i didn't know why is that because i did clean my whole pc recently and it's cold weather right now.

Yesterday i did defragmentatiton, C: drive were like full of fragmented files. After defraging C: drive CPU temp decreased to 45*c going to 50*c in load.
So my question is, does defraging decrease CPU usage and could help it cool off a bit?

i have windows xp - amd processor it that matter

is good to do defragmentatiton only one time , above all when you just install windows and all soft ,...
but is not recommended to do more then twice because of registry problem can occur

Actually i did defrag couple of times cause there were still fragmented files, dont have any problems with that.
@tea urchin: idle right now is about 40-45. As i said i did clean my CPU couple days ago, week and half maybe and did reapply thermal paste about 2 months ago.
I have 5 year old(might be 6 actually, ancient is a good word) AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4800+ with Cooler master hyper tx3 evo and pretty sure it never worked below 39*c even when it was new and 2gb ram memory.Anyway forget that i wanted to know, what could be the cause of decreasing CPU temp from 60*c to 40-45*c, since i didnt open pc box or clean it when it happened?

No it will not. In all likelihood you terminated a background process that was using quite a bit of CPU time. That is all.
