Linux runs the athlon 1.2GHz in this box to a steamy 46.5C

This is hot? My athlon (xp1600+) consistantly runs in the mid to high
fifties and creeps into the high sixties and (rarely) low seventies on a
hot summers day (on Windows XP also). This is despite having a larger
heatsink and fan fitted to the cpu and having extra case fans fitted. I
was reassured that these temps are ok, is this the case?




These temperatures are within acceptable operating temperatures.  Check
