Yep that's definitely an improvement although keep an eye on it as it might go up when it's under load. If it still doesn't get any better you'd probably be better off getting a new heatsink and fan and some good compound. Here's an article comparing the stock cooler and an after market cooler (okay it covers the Intel Core i7 but the general idea is the same): http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/heatsink-heatpipe-cpu,2375.html ...and doing a quick Google search came up with this: http://www.frostytech.com and this... http://www.frostytech.com/top5heatsinks.cfm Should give you some suggestions of what to look out for if you do replace your heatsink and fan.
