CPU TEMP

[RDOG]

What is the standard CPUtemp for a P111 800E? I am overclocking it fo 896 and it funs much better. The CPU temp. with Pro Tools and AOL together playing with 14 tracks w/effects 44C/111F. Is that a acceptable rang? Where can I get info on this? My MB is ASUS P3BF.
ANY COMMENTS WILL BE HELPFUL. I am not shouting just forgot the cap lock was on. Maybe you could help without judging.
THANKS.

Intel lists the max temp at 45c.
I oc my 800EB to 900 and the temp rides along smoothly at 37c with a GoldenGlobe. I get 19 tracks on the DaveC test...
Are you reading that temp from BIOS? They tend to run a bit high. Try a utility like Sandra. Still, you should really try and get that temp down a bit... different CPU fan or add another case fan. Don't want to burn it down.

Of course, I do not condone overclocking... [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img] [img]images/icons/smile.gif[/img]

For case fans check out the Panaflo 80mm at www.directron.com Moves alot of air at low sound.

Those temps look fine to me anyway.
