My Current Processor Intel Core 2 Duo E4600 @ Full Load Shoots Up To 83'C. Is It Too High, Can I Run It At This Temperature For Long Duration? As Most Of Games Make My Processor Work At Full Load...
Processor Overheating.
Well its like walking on a tight rope.. longed use at this temperature may effect the circuit.. You checked if the fan was working properly??
You don't a CPU running at more than 72C ideally. And anything above 80C will affect it drastically.
You can buy aftermarket cooler if you have stock CPU fan. Or else, get thermal paste and re-apply over the CPU surface.

Well in a few months I'll be buying a new processor Intel i5 3570k. So keep that in mind suggest a cooler which can work on both lga 775 & lga 1155...
Go for CM Hyper 212 EVO. Costs around 2.1k and will work fine on both LGA 775 and LGA 1155 socket.
@ Op - just a question - when you get a Shiny new IB cpu what you will do with the e4600 ?
