1.8a Temp

[avenger]

I've overclocked my 1.8a to 1.983 what should the max temp be? When I run 3DMrk2001 a couple times it's around 33 c , is this hot ? BTW I'm still using the stock fan.

Welcome to the Forums!

Those temps look fine. If you want to OC it a little higher, I think you could. If you go too much higher you'll need better cooling but right now I think that temp is fine. Is that an idle or load temp?

Well, 33 C is not hot at all for a P-4. In fact, it's so low that I doubt it's really full load CPU temp. How are you checking temps? What program are you using?

Sounds too low... Are you running 3dmark then taking your time to get the temps?

Try a program like Prime95.

I'm using MBM dash board software. Also I've just finished playing a good 30 min game and the temps are up to 36 c. Is there a better CPU monitor software?

Use Prime95 and open the dashboard after an hour or so.
