Safe or not?
I have an AMD 64 LE-1620 2.4GHz Processor, and it's my first time
messing around with over clocking. I played around with the FSB and voltage a little bit, and was able to get my system to stay stable at 3.01GHz using a FSB of 250x12, and 1.375 volts. The problem is that when I stress test it, it gets to temps of like, 45-50C Degrees. Is that safe, or should I slow it down a little bit? |

Are you using stock or third party cooling? If stock look at getting an Artic Freezer Pro, that will bring you temps down a little if you are worried. -- /home/pc/Documents/sig.txt |

The current intel chips run safely at 70C, I'm sure your AMD can handle 50C. I've had showers that hot! |
