well with p4's they always run hot.. thats not a bad temperature, nothing to get worried about... but yes, if the comp is hot enough it can slow down, because cpu's have threshold points where they slow down to cool off

I would get the Thermalright Ultra-120 with either an Ultra quiet Panaflo 120mm or an Akasa Amber series.
