I have to agree... You can never have your case or chip -too- cold ... I've seen that same article too. - Original Message - From: "Steinar H.

Mersenne: Re: Mersenne Digest V1 #753
I'd say 42 degrees is a little hot. I think I've heard numbers saying that 50 is critical, and at 60, your CPU simply won't work anymore. My own usually runs at 28 or 29, even though the fan isn't especially good. The extreme overclockers get it down to -40 or even -50 :-) I run an ABIT BP-6 with dual Celeron 433's running at 507, both have Golden Orb's fitted.
