So long as ya stay below 50C you'll be fine but hasn't the weather been a bit warm there lately? :?:

nope, in fact, my room (with patio dorr/windows open) is at around 12-20degrees.

humm, is there any way of helping my my cpu coller without spending money on a new HSF or other stuff?

i just lowered back my cpu to 11x166 (2500+ speed) and the asus probe is still reading 38degrees and the nexus reading at 34. (btw, the nexus probe is 1cm away from cpu core)

I believe thats stillkinda high for a CPU cause is at stock.

anyways, any help will be great.
