CPU Temps
I recently overclocked my processor. It's an AMD Barton 2400 (1.8GHz) and I was able to get it up to a 3200 (2.15 GHz). Going any higher or bumping the FSB any higher caused Windows to BSOD or not boot at all.
Now, before I did this my normal temps were ~42C idle and ~50C under load. After the OC the temps are now ~51C idle and ~56-58C under load. I ran CPU Burn in for 24 hours and didn't find any stability issues or data errors. But the temps have me worried. Are those too high for AMD or that particular CPU? Or will I be okay with those kind of temps. Jam it back in, in the dark. |

Ah sorry, I made a mistake last night. It's a 2500+ not 2400+. Though Sandra reports it as "Duron M10 & Athlon MP/XP (Barton/Thorton) 130nm 1.8GHz+". But I'm not that educated on processor models. ._.
I didn't know they could go so high though. Good to know then. I always thought it was much lower. The temps do stay under 60C. They'll only go over 60C for a second or two if it's really hot in the room. Then it goes back down to 56-58C. But normally the room is kept pretty cool. I guess I'll just stick with it. If the temps go any higher I'll just take it back down again. Thank you. There's nowhere I can't reach.
