FOP 32-1 and the 1.33GHz 266 T-Bird. Good enough?

I switched from an overclocked Duron (600 @ 960) to a 1.33GHz/266 AMD CPU. It runs hot without overclocking. Using arctic silver, etc. but I'm hitting 50c easy and getting some game crashes as a result.

Invested in another fan which is on its way, but I was wondering if anyone had issues keeping the new AMD CPUs cool with their FOP32-1. Maybe mine is just getting tired....

need a better one to hit higher...

According to AMD, FOP-32 is only good to 1.2Ghz.
Should at least get something from the AMD approved list for 1.33Ghz application or more powerful unit.

i think it's good enough for 1.2ghz, but definitely get one with a delta fan if u're going higher
