I have a 1.2 Duron on a ecs k7s5a mobo with a Thermaltake Volcano2 fan. I can't figuer out how to get the thing to cool down! It runs at 35c without any load on the cpu. I've tried reaplying the greaseadded another case fan (Side cover mod). Is this a bad cpu or board?:confused:

Hmm, it is kinda hot. I doubt it is the board or CPU. Try sorting out the air flow ie. move cables out of the way. Does your PSU have an air intake on th bottom? That helps.

35C isn't much to worry about, my tbird is nice and stable at 40C idle, 48C under load.
