Hey guys,

First off, thanks for the tip on the Global Win CPU cooler. That heavy thing sucks ---- hot air! Well, actually, the clip sucked. I had to straighten it out to fit -- after breaking one of the socket clip holder.

Anyway, I'm still getting 120 F for overall system temp. Should I trust my system monitor?

By the way, my heatsink is not getting hot at all... I put an arctic silver thermal compound between the core and the heatsink. Is this why it's not getting hot? I read somewhere that the heat sink should be hot...


System Specs:
-------------

Tomato Motherboard
AMD K6 333mhz @ 66mhz [default]
-- running at 333mhz @ 95mhz
128mb PC100 ram
Built-in AGP video @ 75 mhz..
250 Watt powersupply...
Global Win CPU cooler with big @$$ heatsink.

Thanks..
