    does the high temp cause problem? so far I witnessed none despite it runs at around 68 celsius during planetside 2.

    65+ is potentially damaging to the board and/or cpu
    70+ is blue screen shutoff

    it blue screened after a few months. "potentially damaging" could mean it could run just fine for years, or blow a circut after a few hours -
    if u wanna upgrade on the cheap - start off with ur cooling systems, a 120mm fan for intake will drop ur temp 2-6c each n only $5. easy 2-5fps difference
