Question : Problem: Pentium 4 Temperature

I have recently purchaed a computer from a friend (he build them) and everything is great, except I'm a little worried at the processor temperature.
I have a pentium 4 processor at 2.0 GHz, and its normal idel temperature is around the mid to upper 30's (celcius). However when I am playing a game or using my computer the temperature jumps to around 54+ degrees celcius.
Is this okay?

Answer : Problem: Pentium 4 Temperature

yegs2000,
Then, don't worry too much, these temperatures are safe, the only way to lower those is adding fans, but at this moment, there's no need to do so, If you want to overclock your computer in the future, then you'll have to get better coolers.
