Until you smell it burning. Those things are practically indestructible.
well that sounds good, but whats amds recommended thing ? :p
its at 34oC at the moment, and thats overclocked by 337 mhz, seems quite low tho ?
Must be ok to 70 degrees C or higher, but of course thats internal temp and those chips don't have internal temp sensors (70 briefly I mean, not sustained!).
Still, you'd have to think 40 idle/45 under load would be absolutely fine...I mean 2400+ run up to 60 ish under load fine don't they?? OK older technology and so on, but 45 won't kill it I'm sure....
anythin up to about 50 degree's should be no bother, thats a damn good temp if its in the shuttle aswell :)
my 1.4Ghz ran at 90c full load with no probs lmao, although it died when the CPU packed in, finally went at 125c or something, was ok though, got it replaced :)
I ran my 1.2 Ghz T-Bird at about 55*C for over a year, think it actually went up to 60 on a hot day. No probs at all. It was so hot because I had no case fans and it was in a cut down case, so the PSU was vertical, in fornt of the CPU, so it just about encased it :)
Still running in my media comp fine, but now has a tower with no case cover and a 90mm case fan + added n/b fan, so its at a ridiculously low temp now ! :D I am gonna change that soon though and see if I can run it with no n/b fan or case fan, and reduce the speed of the H/s fan, see if I can sleep with it on, should be fun :D
I think the thermal limit for the XP/Barton is 90c Would think it was about the same for the T-Birds.
someone told me its 90oC as well, either way think i should get 1.5 or 6 outta this 1ghz chip easy :) at 1.4 at the mo and idleing at 32oC load is about 38oC
and this is in a shuttle and with not much thermal paste as i ran out :p
