What are the serial numbers for you Celery 433 overclockers?

[hkssupra69]

I have a 433 celery overclocked to 488 right now and already its at 62 degrees C. I've gotten it up to 520 and it gets close to 67. I'm worried that this isn't good for the CPU and I was hoping you guys could help me out. I've booted up at 540 but it froze soon after, would better cooling help out? I just have a plain generic heatsink and fan and I'm OC'ing on a p3v4x. Please help me out with any informationn and oh, I wanted to know what are the success stories of other people. thanks guys.

I've gotten my C433 to 541MHz in the past, but it wouldn't work after I put in an Adaptec SCSI card, probably a PCI bus thing. I was also using the stock intel heatsink(if that's what you mean by a "generic heatsink". It booted up to Windows and runs fine, but I didn't do any intensive testing, nor did the motherboard I used support CPU/mobo temp monitoring, so I can't say what the temperature was, but considering the ambient room temperature around here runs up to 30+C, I'd say the CPU is running really hot.
60+C would be really a high temp for a CPU, you might wanna consider some better cooling option.

any other suggestions

I'd say you should really consider a better cooling solution, I have a Celery 433 @ 591MHz and the highest temperature I've ever reached was around 48 degrees celsius. At rated clock speed it hits about 38-42 degrees.

I have my voltage up to 2.1 to try and keep it stable I think that's part of the reason for the heat but I don't understand why its so hot. usually the heatsink feels pretty cool when I touch it. Also I was wondering what serial numbers people have on their celeron, I think I have one from a pretty crappy batch.

You definitely need to get a better cooler, with my C366@458( i know crap a$$ batch) i was getting max around 39c. Although i think 67 is within operating temp, it could put strain on your cpu.

[edit]Where are you getting your temp readings, you say the heatsink feels pretty cool. If thats the case you could be gettin inaccurate readings.

I just bought an asus p3v4x and it has some kind of program it came with that measures the temp. I'm buzzed that's all i'm gonna write.

What heatsink/fan combinations do you people recommend, I'm thinking about getting the Orb, is it worth the money?
