Temperatures for Banshee?

[Neoplasia]

What are normal temperatures for a Creative Labs Banshee (16MB)?

Thanks.

Hot as hell. I have one that I cant keep my finger on the heatsink for more that 1 second.

I have the temp probe for my MSI 6163 wedged in the teeth of my heatsink on the Banshee, reads 76 when I reboot after a while. Don't like that too much, just wondering if that's normal (putting a 486 fan on it again anyways). If it was much bigger I could make myself some eggs on the darn thing. 🙂

I used to have Banshee. It runs at 60C during the first hour...and rose to 70C in 1 hour. I put a 60x60mm fan (16-18CFM) and it ran at only 40-45C max. I suggest your put a fan on it.

Had a 486 fan on it (took it off yesterday while I was digging around inside). Temp got up to 76C without (not even overclocked any), put the fan back on this afternoon and it never goes above 45C. Man that little fan makes a world of difference. I had no idea that it was normal for them to be so hot, that's just insane.
