Running a P4 1.5 in an ABIT TH7-II RAID, keep hearing people say their P4 temps are 30-35 C and only spike to 40ish under certain conditions. Mine runs CPU at 37-39C idle and 43-45 Load, is this high? i'm using the Retail HSF and I used Arctic Silver II thermal compound but I think i didn't use enough. Anyone tell me their P4 temps?

I don't have a P4, but my Athlon XP is running high 40's all the time.:Q I was worried about this at first until other people told me that this is not that hot. Maybe its different for P4's, but for Athlon's that would be a nice temp, IMHO.:cool:

[EDIT] here is the link for my thread on my XP's heat. Lots of opinions in here, but they don't all apply to your P4 probably. Hope it helps some.
