After endless topics of people with Pentium 4 heat problems I decided to make a page that helps and explains the solution.

Best solution is to get a 90nm a64 , mine is at 35C under max load with stock cooler 8O.

Signature (up to 200 characters). You may use <font color=blue><b>Markup</b></font color=blue> in your signature

My friend has a scotty 3.4 with the intel approved case.

I don't call a 55C <i>idle</i> temp much consolation. That's still warmer than I like - I start thinking about improving cooling when that's my <i>load</i> temp :eek: ..

Plus as his rig had no casefans, that also meant system temp was 52C, which again is just silly. :eek:

Obviously the approved case design is preferable to not having one, but it doesn't really solve anything - the damn things run too hot for enthusiasts.

Joe Blow however won't ever notice a problem, he'll just be blissfully unaware that his scotty is underclocking itself much of the time.
