Yes i was wondering if there is a way to get the cpu fan to run at full speed at all times my processor is running at like 68-69 degrees celcius .
Have you tried looking in your BIOS for a speed setting? Many times, that can be configured in the BIOS.
Is the CPU running that hot under load, or idle? If it's running that hot when idle, you may want to think about reseating the heat sink with some good arctic silver or something, and as ancestor(v) suggested, try another cooling option.
Its running that way under idle and ive already reseated it with artic silver, and ive looked in the bios there is a option for smart q-fan thats it. The fan will run at maybe 3000 rpms max
Some specs on your setup please ? Also where is your machine situated ? With those kind of temps i would be saving for a new CPU and mobo.

...Or just use SpeedFan. It lets you control the speed of all of your fans, along with reporting all of the temps to you and telling you when they are too hot.
Your bios will also report what it thinks is correct,in hardware monitor, you will also see your fan speeds.
