Okay. I'm quite peeved. My AMD Athlon was overheating like mad and I couldn't figure out why. So I guessed that the problem must be with the CPU, MB, or both. So I said "screw it" and bought an AthlonXP and new MB. Plugged it all up nicely and... wham. Overheated instantly. I went to the bios monitor on first boot-up and it was at 80 degrees celsius already and climbing until it shut off.
So. Now what?
I'm not ready to accept that it's coincidence that two CPU/MB's in a row have overheating issues like this, so it must be something else.
Could the power supply be causing this?
Thanks
