I have no handware knowledge when it comes to computers so if my question seems juvenile or "common" knowledge, please do not laugh or make any crude, childish remarks.

Do I need to worry about overheating a AMD XP 1800+ or 1900+ if I do not overclock?

If you're not overclocking the proceesor, the OEM HSF should be fine. But if you're looking for something better than OEM I would go with a Volcano6cu.

You won't need to worry about it overheating as long as you have adequate case ventilation and adequate cooling. Even the stock Retail Boxed cooler will work for a non-overclocked system.

What's the frequency, Kenneth?

Don't call yourself a moron because it invites trolls such as AMDMeltdown to use you and make fun of you.

Stock retail heatsink and one case fan is all any athlon needs to not worry about heat.


Dont listen to meltdown, he is still mad his mom got him a tbird for school instead of his precious p4, when he called his mom an amd pup, she told him the money she saved buying the athlon is going into his special "fund" to pay for his facial reconstruction surgery.Now everytime someone mentions the great value of amd processors he is subconciously reminded of his repugnant facial oddity, thus the anger at amd users. Poor meltdown, pity him and his hideously deformed face.

LoL, I was sitting here in my bunny suit(no lie) and it just came off my fingers into cyber space. Thankyou for the uproarious commentary. :)


PS: if meltdown wants more of his story told he will keep insulting me and my place of work for no reason, I can be pursueded to continue writing such funny insulting commentary if he wishes it.
