Hii...this is my first post...hallooo all of ya!
I build a computer for my friend with the AMD athlon XP2400+ and the MSI K7N2G-L Nforce 2 motherboard. I used the stock HS with the skived fins but i removed the thermal tape and replaced it with a thin layer of AC3..the HS base and the CPU is cleaned very thoroughly. After going into bios, the temp slowly rises and max out at 70C. Is this normal or a lil too high? I know that MSI measures temp directly from the CPU Temp diode so should i be worried to DEATH NOW?? HELP ME!! PLZ
The temp is take with the case open. So is there something wrong? ALLAH...help me...inshallah!! aaah help me...i am loosing sleep and food and sooon my sanity..........alllaaaah....
