Hello, i'm having serious overheating with a athlon64 3500.
45c idle, but when video editing and playing games, it reaches 60c, and then it drops to 57, but no more. 57c becomes the idle temperature.
What's wrong?
 
That is true that is why I endlessly work on my chiller and tomorrow the pvc pipes go in ,and back to deep freeze this time i'm cranking the stat to the highest
 
LOL no wander your temps are so high, get a better HEATSINK!! Get a cheap Arctic Cooling Freezer-64, it's the best performance/price ratio heatsink out there. Only 25 bucks, for a great silent heatsink.
 
rofl, 40mm??? ive seen better cooling on a pentium 166.

go tell your alien brothers, that ronnie cordova says they're gay!!! <A HREF="http://sockbaby.com" target="_new"> sock baby </A>

I know it's a gun (actually, its a gun company - they make more than just 1 gun)... I just have a bad(?) habit of changing context for no apparent reason...

They didn't have a 'hood' when I grew up... ;=)
