I have a GREAT o/c'er that is a perfectly stable P3 650 running @ 949 with just an oversized HSF. The strange thing to me is that if I check my cpu temp with AsusProbe, after any amount of gaming in any game, I get a temp of roughly 27-33C. I hadn't ever run a program and simultaniously run the probe to see the temp. To my surprise the temp on the cpu shows a jump from 27 to @65C running SETI. The temp rises in about 5secs. but also comes back to @27 in the same time after I stop SETI.
Is this OK?
Update: I read another post that suggested redoing the thermal paste and HS attachment. I did this and now my temps stay below 50C. @45-48 under full SETI load. I think I can do better though. Any ideas on how?
