My CPU is at 52C

Right o....

I was having fun trying to play the UT demo which lasted 10 minutes until my CPU hit 60C.

I then ordered some OCZ silver type stuff (think it's fake silver but comes out the same on a test I found).

So, stuck that on and seems much better, low 40s idle and mid-50s under load (silent fan/warm room) and it's only been in there an hour so should hopefully drop to idle < 40C again once it gets sorted.

Thanks again for all the feedback!
