I'm pretty new around here and pretty new to running my PCs hard and fast. Anyway, I've currently got 2 desktop PCs and a laptop crunching away. I've installed TTrottle and have these results:
----------------------------------------Main desktop – Intel e5200 dual core Pentium at 2.5 GHz - 48° C Laptop – Lenovo i3-2350 2.3 GHz 2c/4t running at 50% of the processors at 100% CPU time – 55° C (so basically just with 2 cores without hyper threading) And just added: Backup desktop – Intel e5200 dual core Pentium at 2.5 GHz – 85° C Oops what happened here? Well after a good vacuum, fresh thermal grease under the heat sink - 38° C at 100% with both cores running flat out. Looks like my other e5200 box will be getting a cleaning.

Good job. Excessive dust build up can act like an insulating blanket, holding the heat in. It is a good practice to clean the insides about once a year, more often if your environment is especially dusty.
