If you have a pentium 4 2.8C or something close to it please post your temps after 10-20 minutes of Prime 95. My cpu runs at close to 60C after 10 minutes of Prime 95 with a thermaltake spark 7(all coper w/ 49 cfm fan) and case temp is like 27C. I contacted intel and they gave me some bullshit answer. I just want to know what your temps are. I am using Hmonitor to monitor my cpu temp and a probe to get my case temp. Please post cpu temp, case temp, and heatsink/fan.

Depending on ambient temps my 2.8 will be anywhere from 47-55c while running Prime95. This is with stock cooling.
It is now overclocked to 3.2 and the themp are still within 1c of non oc.
Temps are the same/very close when measured through hardware doctor,bios or sandra.

Specs.
Chieftec full tower
Abit IC7-G
2.8C@3.2
1Gb Kingston HyperX 3200 (2X512)
AIW9800Pro
2 80mm front intakes
2 80mm rear exhaust
1 80mm side panel exhaust.

There are some screen shots of the temps at idle when its cool inside on the myrig link.

As it sits during Prime95 for 20 minutes, overclocked and all:
Highest perceived temp (53C / 127F)
Average Temp ( 51C/123F)

These temps work fine for me, hope this helps

My P4 2.8GHz 800fsb runs a little hot with a spark 7+ I think. After 10 min of prim95 it was at 65c. Idle temp is about 46c. I used Gigabyte EZTune to monitor temps. Of course my case doesn't have the best circulation (Antec Sonata). I have been using the thermal sensor to controll fan speed but, am thinking of switching to the manual controll. What is the hotest this CPU is rated for? Noise is my biggest concern, so I would be willing to take a performance hit.
