Ur cpu fan speed is low,at that temperature it should be around 4500 rpm or more!
maybe ur cpu fun has some problems!
also try to clean the vents,maybe dusts filled them!
and also ur heat sink may have some problems!

By the CPU's Core Voltage it looks like You have a Prescott , if so then it is a hot-runner by nature.
Although 80°C is too hot!

nojoum suggested that Your CPU fan speed is too low.
Not necessarily , it depends on the fan itself , mine is running @2400rpm.
Assuming that You have the original Intel heatsink+fan 3000 rpm should be about the highest speed it supports.

As nojoum said , You might need to clean Your CPU's heatsink!
When the heatsinks fins fill up with dust , generated heat can not be dissipated effectively by the fan because collated dust blocks the air to flow through the fins.

Your entire PC seams to run a little hot.
Too high environment temperature will diminish heat dissipation too!

In addition , if You have an original Intel heatsink that never got removed since it was installed:

... Your CPU might experience heat-buildup due to aged thermal grease.
Even worse if Your CPU's cooler got the original Intel "stuff" on it - surely better than air/nothing , but that stuff is just wrong!
The solution would be to take of the CPU's cooler , clean neatly both cooler and CPU , spread a THIN layer of Silicon or Silver thermal grease on both and put it back together.
This certainly requires some do-it-yourself knowledge and if You think You CAN'T do it then DON'T - find someone to do it for You.

The temperature of the GPU (graphic card) is a bit too high for a GeForce 9500GT , but I've seen hotter.
The temperatures of Your hard drives is high , but not too high if they are not cooled actively by their own fan!

P.S.: Is Your PC running @ stock clocks or is it overclocked?
Overclocking Your CPU/GPU will cause increased heat output!

well i had a pentium 4 celeron,on tempreture 65C the fan speed was about 4000rpm
my newer pc,has only one fan,(only cpu fan) but the tempreture of my cpu doesn't excess 55C!

well i had a pentium 4 celeron,on tempreture 60C the fan speed was about 4000rpm
my newer pc,has only one fan,(only cpu fan) but the tempreture of my cpu doesn't excess 55C!

As I said , it depends on the fan!

The original (stock) Intel heatsink of my CPU has a 60mm fan running @~3000 rpm.

My custom CPU heatsink in use , a Zalman CNPS9500 , has a 92mm fan idling @ mere 2600 rpm max.

My custom MBO chipset heatsink , a Thermaltake Extreme Spirit II , sports a 40mm fan whirring in excess of up to 4500 rpm.

A fan of a smaller diameter will run at higher rpm to achieve a decent air flow/pressure.

Having just a CPU fan is not recommendable as the heat of the PC components just circulates withing the PC case/tower.
At least 1 fan blowing the air OUT of the case is recommended.

My Thermaltake Armor tower is stocked with 4 fans , 2x90mm + 2x120mm.
But I have only one connected to the power supply - a 120mm fan @1400rpm blowing air directly over my HDD's keeping them chilled!

well i had a pentium 4 celeron,on tempreture 60C the fan speed was about 4000rpm

A Celeron running at 60°C is just wrong , the hottest Celeron I've encountered was frying @~50°C.

I had a Intel Celeron 700A overclocked to 1052MHz.
Equipped with a Titan TTC-D5TB heatsink it never exceeded 40°C.
I never managed to O.C. any CPU that high again (+50%).

taikucingg must identify the source/reason of the heat build-up , otherwise we all just keep guessing.
From my point of view it could be: collated dust in the heatsink , dried out thermal grease , high environment temperature , bad in-case ventilation , malicious software running in the background of his OS.

P.S.: The ONLY component that heats up over 50°C in my PC is the GPU.
Under full load when gaming it manages to reach 65°C (@stock clocks).
I thought of customizing the heatsink with a full copper one , but I abandoned that thought as I rarely play games anyway.

and my cpu was intel pentium IV 2.4 ghz celeron!
the one u mention is probably pentium 3!


yeah.i had 3 fans,but they dont work anymore,hopefully lesser noise
these are my tempratures,and my case is opened already.

Yes , it was a good old P3 gen. - had it for years (just like my current P4).

Oh my , You have a Prescott...
Are those temps with You PC running idle/without any load?
Your graphic card has a passive cooler , right?
78°C is rather suited for a more powerfull overclocked GPU , but that is what happens when there is no fan on the heatsink.
Your HDD's temp. is acceptable considering it has no active cooling - and Maxtor's are getting quite warm.
I had 2 40GB ATA-HDD in my old P3 , one spinning @5400rpm , the other @7200.
The "faster" one died on me , started popping up bad sectors one after another - shame , as it was a quite expensive HDD at that time.

How is that Sony DVD drive working for You , is it a good reliable burner/reader?
Always wanted to get a Sony drive , ended up with a SonyNEC Optiarc (among others ) - a great burner , some minor drawbacks with reading used/damaged discs though.

hmmm just browsing internet and listening to music!
my gpu has no cooler!
what is a passive cooler?
actually i dont use my Optical Drives much!
the dvd-rw one just reads CD,i dont know why but it doesn't read DVDs anymore!

i have 3 pcs at home!
one of them has intel pentium 3 700 mhz
i bought about 10 years,but still working good!

this is actually my pc

Ur cpu fan speed is low,at that temprature it shoudl be around 4500 rpm or more!
maybe ur cpu fun has some problems!
also try to clean the vents,maybe dusts filled them!
and also ur heat sink may have some problems!

OK, thanks for the advice.
BTW my CPU fan is Intel's original

What OS you running on that thing anyway?

Windows 7 Ultimate x86 (32bit)

P.S.: Is Your PC running @ stock clocks or is it overclocked?
Overclocking Your CPU/GPU will cause increased heat output!

No, i don't overclock it.

my gpu has no cooler!
what is a passive cooler?

You answered Your own question - a passive cooler is a heatsink without a fan.
To yet ensure enough heat dissipation a passive coolers heatsink is mostly several times bigger than that of a cooler equipped with a fan.

actually i dont use my Optical Drives much!
the dvd-rw one just reads CD,i dont know why but it doesn't read DVDs anymore!

If You are lucky You just might need to update Your drives Firmware.
But Your Sony is most likely damaged.
I have a LG DVD drive that doesn't respond to DVD's anymore - I guess the laser lens is worn out as flashing the drive didn't change anything.

This is my PC:

Ur Pc Looks CooL!
lots of fan!

It looks even nicer with the second 120mm fan turned on and the side panel attached

1) BTW my CPU fan is Intel's original

2) Windows 7 Ultimate x86 (32bit)

3) No, i don't overclock it.

1) Then the 3000rpm will be about the highest spinning rate of the fan.

2) Although the OS does put a load to any PC system it will not cause a CPU to overheat.

3) Then overclocking is not the reason for Your PC to overheat
