The part I find strange is this
So 49-50 degrees isnt hot? He claims he was getting 43 before with a non agoia xp1600...
Well...there was no real change besides the chip. One thing is....When I got this chip I immediately tried OCing it...so I never really gave it a chance to run at default.
If those numbers are correct correct then you've increased almost 10 cel just by swapping an XP for an XP, that's not right.Did you change anything else.Was your room/case temp cooler when you got 43 cel with your first XP?
Nothing else has changed...But I did switch over to Artic Silver 3 after I realized the hot temps....It lowered temps only about 1 degree
Oddly...When I OC to 166fsb...idle just jumps 2 degrees to 54
thats normal Increasing the bus speed will increase cpu temp.
