My god. I got a package in today with my new equipment from PCNut.

Got that Blue Meanie special with 256 MB Mushkin Rev 2.

PCNut is awesome. I just plugged it and it booted at 1.1GHz and hasn't crashed once. Awesome stuff, highly recommended.

1.85V is what the bios is set at, however its shows up in Hardware Monitoring as 1.9V. Not hot at all though, the cpu probe registers 105 deg F on the CPU and 75 deg F in the case.

Are you using the Vantec HSF from PCNut? I got a combo too but mine is running at like 50C (130F?) .. not good 🙁
 
vantec is lowest on the food chain of upgraded heatsink/fans.

it really sucks.

48-50C idle is not abnormal overclocked on these cheap heatsinks. (the fans are decent)
 
my vantec is anywhere from 47-52C at 800mhz. In a micro atx case though. Full load rc5, its a pretty good heatsink. Better than the coolermasters.
