Temps WERE ok... but now they're wacky

I've been running my athlon 1600 @ 148 fsb for about a week, and it seemed like it would idle at around 44.5 celsius, and go to 47 load.

After a week of running at 148 fsb, my idle temps are up to 50? What's going on here? I've had my computer for about 2 weeks, so I figure the heat sink has settled..... but I'm baffled as to what my problem is.

Welcome to the forums!

Has it gotten warmer around you computer? That would be my guess.

i agree with thelemac but it could also just be the wacky job the motherboard probe does

Well, the ambient temps been quite stable, around 29. I toned down the overclock back to 133, and it dropped the temp to 48, but that's still really high for just standard speeds. I'll wait a day and see how it goes

29 is realy high for ambient temps id like shut off my comp @ those temps , thats just me

u must have realy good c/w
