Amazing K8 Cooling

Post by AMD Boy »

Ok, I finished setting up my system. I am running my CPU @ 100% now with SETI. Best of all, my CPU is only @ 23C!!!

I thought it would run @ 40C with AMD's retail cooler, but the 2800 is much better than that!

I am lost with words. :D

Correction:
We updated the BIOS.
It fixed the temp. problem.
Now we are reading around 53C.

For those who have the same motherboard as AMD Boy, make sure you set the memory speed to auto if you have DDR400. There is no 200MHz setting. I hope Chaintech gets some better drivers soon.

I just think you are covering up a lie.... That's just my 2 cents
