Is my Duon running to hot? I have downloaded a prog that tells me my CPU is running between 105 and 113 degs, is this to hot for a Duron or OK? I dont have any problems or crashes but I am woried that in the long term it may be a problem. Duron is a 600 on a gigabyte 72m board, board temps is 78deg. Help or suggestions..
Thanks

That's just about perfect for a Duron http://www.PCGuide.com/ubb/biggrin.gif It can stand MUCH higher temps than that......as in 160+ Degrees F. You want to keep an eye on your cpu fan speed occasionally......should it fall below about 4800 rpm's consistently, it will be time to replace it. My fan (Athalon 900) runs @ about 6700 rpm's as an example.

Got mine @ ZNet under downloads/utilities......but the dang thing was one of those 30 day deals and it just expired......dont have one now, but I think it was called "CPU Cool" or something like that.
