To hot?

[cataclsm]

Is my system running to hot? The CPU is running at 143.5F and the system temp is 91F My system seems to be as stable as an A7V133 is capable of being but I worry about burning out the board.

Thanks,

Specs:
1.4 ghz AMD
Asus A7V133 Motherboard
20 gig Western Digital
Sound Blaster PCI 128 SC
Gforce 2MX 32 MB Video
etc...

What kind of heatsink do you have? Do you have any case fans? With good cooling your temps should be 10-20f cooler.

My temps are running around the same. Sometimes even higher. Although I'm running an Asus A7A 266 with 1.2ghz T-Bird. And rumour has it that temps are around 10c cooler then whats being reported by the probe. But even if thats true it's still a lot hotter then I like. I'm used to having a nice and cool cpu coming from running intels for so many years.

I suggest you cool that down,Unless you are truely havind a M/B moniter that reads 10 degrees more than actual.And personally 132 degrees is too hot considering the cooling options out there for 40 bucks.

I have a 1.2 at 1.43 {9.5x150}My max temps hit 45c.

This is 112.5 degrees.My sink Is the SK6 with the delta fan.

I cant remember the name brand of the CPU fan I’m using but its suppose to be AMD approved up to the 1.5ghz processor, I’m running an open case with a standard case fan along with the CPU fan, I’m considering changing to the Dragon Orb 3 CPU fan, what do you think?

I haven't even heard where the dragon orbs are available, but there are a few things you could do to to cool your processor without the orb. You are of course using a THIN layer of heatsink paste I imagine, Artic silver thermal paste sometimes shaves off a few degrees. Also lapping your heatsink to get it really flat could also make a big difference. Make sure your case has plenty of cooling though, that also has a big effect on the cpu temp. You also might use amother program or check your bios to get a more accurate temp reading. Goodluck!
