Bingo, I did mean this CPU has been over 100°C. CPU's can take more of a beating than you think, I will explain more on this later, gotta run.
 
my tbredB 2400+ hit 120C at a lan party, fan came unplugged and i had a aluminum/copper zalman flower instead of the all copper one...i kept wondering why it kept crashing in games. but its fine still just not in use at the moment
 
my 2000+ hit 90c on a hot day w/ an old TT cooler. didn't hurt it at all. and i used to run my 2500+ @ 2.5GHz 1.925v daily for over a year. those chips could take a beating.
 
yep, they are tanks :)

if it keeps scaleing while adding voltage, feed it teh jo0s and keep going, then bring it down 10mhz from your wall heheh :beer:
