the core is suppose to handle more, but mine gave errors @ 65*C.
you're running the ragged edge.
get a better cooler.

Independant thought is good.
It won't hurt for long.

This is where I live, it sucks for overclocking, I had to back down my old k6 too. At 233 it's temps are about 2-5c more than room temp, about 25-30c. If I move it up to 266 it will overheat and error at around 40c or more. I dread the day when summer actually starts here and my room temps will be around 40-50c, though it rarely hits 50c here. Not even my shify 462 will cool my 1ghz axia when it gets that hot out side. Time to sell it and get a water cooling system going.

or at least turn the ac on, though I am a cheap bastard.
