My 2800XP Barton core (2075 Mhz) is overclocked to 2188 Mhz (approx a 3000XP i think). Hottest it's ever gotten was while rendering a 1600x1200 3d image made in 3Ds Max. Got to 144 degrees farenheit. Finished the same render about 25 minutes after my buddy's P4 HT 3.06 o/c'ed to 3.33. Those run hot....it never locked, but the cpu got to 172 degrees. I must say however, having 12 fans sure makes for a loud computer =0P -- Brendan Sullivan <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
