Definitely :D
This is the quad-core that runs all the time...
Temperatures:
Motherboard 43 ░C (109 ░F)
CPU 46 ░C (115 ░F)
CPU #1 / Core #1 41 ░C (106 ░F)
CPU #1 / Core #2 39 ░C (102 ░F)
CPU #1 / Core #3 36 ░C (97 ░F)
CPU #1 / Core #4 35 ░C (95 ░F)
North Bridge 46 ░C (115 ░F)
South Bridge 73 ░C (163 ░F)
GPU Diode (DispIO) 56 ░C (133 ░F)
GPU Diode (MemIO) 52 ░C (126 ░F)

WDC WD60EZRX-11MVLB1 34 ░C (93 ░F)
That southbridge can get really flaming hot if the USB HD is busy. As in
215F. Shelled out for a high-end heatsink but doesn't quite fit the
spot, so it'll just have to suffer.
Vidcard fan died, then two replacements died, gave up and made it do without...
it was fine til I needed the slot next to it too... and then
I had to position an external fan for its benefit.
Here's the ol' everyday P4:
Temperatures:
Motherboard 38 ░C (100 ░F)
CPU 48 ░C (118 ░F)
Aux 7 ░C (45 ░F)
Seagate ST340015A 40 ░C (104 ░F)
WDC WD400EB-11CPF0 54 ░C (129 ░F)
WDC WD800JB-00JJC0 54 ░C (129 ░F)
Hitachi HTS723232L9A360 29 ░C (84 ░F)
I don't know what the heck Aux is supposed to be, but either it leads an active
fantasy life, or I really need to turn up my heat.
(The Hitachi is a laptop HD used as an external.)

It was ... that was part of why it got exiled to the garage in the first place!
