Hi all, I have recently overclocked my BX mobo from 100Mhz to 112Mhz. I have noticed a jump in system temperature from 28-29c to 33-34c under stress. I have a Katmai 550 now runing at 617. What is the temperature safe zone for these processors.
Thanks//Ghost

Keeping it at 45*C and under is best. If you bring it into the 50s, they might experience minor problems. I think the max. temperature before they blow is around 90*C.
