Hi guys

A little help please.

I have a Windows 7 64 bit system that has been running since 2014.

Of late I note my CPU gets to 50+' and I'd like to move it down a little.
This happens during video rendering.

I make sure to keep it cleaned out inside.

I'd like to make sure I have my bios set up to correctly run the fans.

I have attached some photos from it so you can see what is there.

You can see my specs here http://speccy.piriform.com/results/7Tvt7hvGbZ7JCmMbQUKDC5x

I would say that your BIOS settings, related to Fan operation, is done correctly.
I have a i5 and I've set my CPU temperature warning to 80ºC.
If the temperature inside the case is around 25ºC, it's normal to get CPU temperatures above 50ºC at high operations like during video rendering.
In my opinion, 50ºC CPU temperatures is normal. You should begin to worry if it rises above 80ºC.
