I just got my upgrade done (YAY!). but with its completion arose a new menace: My celeron's temperature is fluctuating over a wide spectrum (between 32c and 66c), and most of the time its running way too hot. How in hell's freezer can I fix this issue and hogtie my celeron's temperature into submission?
 
mobo: Gigabyte 8S648FXP-RZ (SiS 648 chipset)
Processor: Intel Celeron 2.2
HSF: Stock Cooler Master Aluminum (fan is at 3300 rpm, maxed out)
RAM: Infineon 512 MB PC3200
Sound Card: integrated Realtek 4.1
Wireless Card: D-Link Air Plus G
Video Card: Chaintech Geforce SA6600 256 MB 8x AGP
Case: Asus Chieftec Dragon series
cooling: 3 intake fans, 2 outtake fans
PSU: Ultra X-Connect Blue/Orange UV 500 Watt 12 volt

The case was also just recently cleaned
 
try using as5, but make sure ur making full contact with ur heatsink. you might not be applying enough pressure to ur cpu.


funny offtopic story: i stuck my mobile celeron into an intel mobo. the stock hsf taht came with it didnt contact the die so i used pennies (there was no integrated hs/ heat spreader on the celeron) needless to say the temps jumped to 170F on load.
