I would be concerned if I were you. Some 8600/9600s have power supply problems which can result in processor overheating. I have a particular 9600/200 which had this flaw. Replacement of the power supply cured the problem. Right now I am running a 533 MHz G3 in my Beige G3 MT, which actually has LESS cooling capacity than the 9600, although the cases are quite similar. My 533 MHz G3 chip is presently running at 78 degrees F, and it will run all day and all night at this temperature. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
