PC temps
Anyone have an idea what the proper temp for a PC should be? I get 60 on my CPU and GPU when surfing the web and about 65 when playing videogames. Is this good? I'm asking because I want to buy a new PC case (and fans) for cooling and I want to make sure that my cost is justified.
*All temps in celsius. Fahrenheit should die.

If the temperature when the processors are being trashed is only 5º above the one when they're idle, you can guess yourself. (Because CPU usage is really little above 0% when surfing, right?)

I've decided to replace my case anyway because my current case looks like crap anyway and has crap ventilation.

obviously, it doesn't have `crap ventilation` when your temperatures were good..

I actually took another set of readings today. CPU jumped to about 70 after about an hour of surfing the web and to 75 after playing Company of Heroes for about 2 hours. And I don't consider that to be good temps.
