Cpu temp???

[zypha]

I just bought a new cpu cooler, antec referance cooler(sounds like a d**n jet air plane now), and my cpu temp is 116°F, 125°f full load is this good?, System specs 1800 xp overclocked to 2000+, soyo kt333 lite MB.:r :r

116F= 46C that is fine
125F= 51C

Those are good idle and full load temps. :t

Carefully apply with a pin point, allow to dry/set, then make the connecting traces.

My company made cyanoacrylates for the automotive aftermarket in the late 80s/early 90s... the reactor was actually in a back room of our lab. :p
