Hi all,
It seems that these AMD's run very hot. I have an oversized cpu fan and an
extra intake fan on the front and that took my system temp down to about 30C
from 40C and cpu temp down to 52 from 67. It seems that the important thing
is lots of crossflow ventilation so you have to make sure that the front fan
pulls the air in and the back fan blows it back out of the case for maximum
efficiency.
Best,
Verne

I have just built a system with a MSI k7n2g ilsr mainboard with an XP
2600+.
CPU temperature shows between 55C and 59C. Is this normal? The cpu was
boxed
and uses the standard amd cooler and fan. Thanks in advance.
