I have looked at the AMD info from their website and wish to make sure I am reading it correctly. Is the maximum operating temp for an Athlon XP 185 degrees farenheit? Currently, my chip is hovering around the 100-104 range, according to the motherboard monitoring system. I have used a non-oem heatsink and fan. The fan is larger than stock and turns at a lower RPM than the stock one, so I want to make sure my operting temp is within the acceptable parameters. Thank you in advance for any assistance. --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!? New and Improved Yahoo! Mail - Send 10MB messages!
