Temperatures
 

What is a good temperature for an amd athlon xp 2000+ proc?

and waht is a good system temperature?

I built my friend's PC with the XP2100+ and it's solid around 50°C with plenty of case airflow. Both his and my system temps stay right around 35°C.

Yo! My XP1600+ is kicking 51C and the system temp is 38C.

That's pretty much how she goes.

How did you do a degree sign?

Hold down Alt while you type 0176 on the keypad. ;)

Any were from 40 C to 55C is fine

As long as it is not crashing and acting flakey it should be fine.

60C is what you want to stay below. I'm running 32C case and 52C proc under load from SETI. Thats on a 1.33 Tbird oc'd to 1.4.

I have a 2800 Barton cooled by an Arkua hsf that runs around 52c while playing Quake. Normally it hangs around 48-50. AMD says 85c is max. They have a whole explanation <a href="http://139.95.253.213/SRVS/CGI-BIN/WEBCGI.EXE/,/?St=16,E=0000000000085229675,K=1263,Sxi=4,Case=obj(109)">here</a>.

I have dual athlon mp's (1900+) and they run 41° and 43° respectively, while the system runs at 30°

I've got a TBred 2400+ bumped to 2.13 GHz (core) and my max load temps run around 40°C(sys and proc). I'm running a TT Volcano 9 for the proc, with 2 PS fans, 2 80mm exhaust fans, and 2 intake fans (1-80mm 1-92mm).

P4 2.53ghz OCed to 2.849Ghz, it runs at 89F idle and 105 full load (Air cooled)

AMD Athlon XP 1700 T-bird 42C but thats because I have a crappy cooler (Volcano 7)
