Newegg AROIA Y overclocking?

[Hankysmoo]

I have a newegg 1600XP AROIA Y overclocked to 2100XP speeds on an epox 8k3ae (newest bios). I am using arctic silver 2 with SVC Golden Gate 40. My motherboard temps are around 30 degrees C and my idle temps are at 55 C and load to about 65-70. Should I get a better hsf? I'm at a UCLA dorm room right now so theres no ac and I'm worried about the heat.

BTW: This chip can only do 166 stable at 1.75V. Do you think its because of the motherboard or the hsf? Also, at 1.75 it wont even do 167 stable. I have 512mb samsung ddr 2700. Anyone know if the epox 8k3ae just sux at overclocking?

65C to 70C is a bit hot i would think.

I just got this stepping as well. How doest it overclock compared to the AGOIA and is it typical fothis core to have very high temps or is it about the same as AGOIA temp wise? The actual chip is much tiner then the older Athlon/Durons, could that effect how ell the heatsink will connect to the core?

Also, anybody know of any rather inexpensive peltier or other form of cooling that is better then a HSF combo.

Thanks

Look at my sig, thats an AROIA-Y.


And 65C-70C is way too high.

I average at 48C Full load. 10.5x181 = 1901mhz, 1.9VCore, 2.8VDimm.
