I'm running an Athlon Xp 2000+@1715 Mhz.
I also have 2 80mm Fans, one pulling air in the other extracting.

These are my curent temps under full load:
Cpu= 45 C, 38 C Idle
System=27 C and 23 C.

Im using a stock HFS with a white thermal pad.

Are these temps within spec?

Yea that sounds good to me. My case has 4 fans sucking(out) and 3 blowing(in). Ive got a 2000+ which is not OCed and Im getting 45c idle and 48c load, system is 32c which seems hot. Your OCing and getting better temps than me, so your doing something right

My temp have gone down 8 C just from me taking the one side of my case off. Maybe you all should try that to lower the temps. it worked for me!

Ive tryed doing that b4 but it messed up the air flow over my components, and raised my CPU & board temp about 5c. So i always run it with the side on, but its diff for all cases and it all depends on the design and air flow dynamics of the particular case being used.

Yeh that it good. I am surprised that you got that with a stock heatsink and a thermal pad! Usually thermal pads provide poor cooling performance when compared to something like Artic Silver 3.

Thank You,
Daniel

lol, I consider nice weather a little colder, it has been hot the last few weeks and it went down a bit. Guess that means I'm addicted to OCing lol!
