I am just trying to get some input on the average operating temperature of 1.4 Ghz Athlon's. Thanks

mid 40s to mid 50s depending on your heatsink

43 - 47 degrees idle.
45 - 49 full load.

Stock AMD supplied (Coolermaster) heatsink with upgraded Coolermaster 5400 RPM fan.

42-46 full load depending on room temp (1.33@1.4 w/SK-6 Delta 7K) now 44 degrees@1.47GHz under Seti load.
I never idle as I have Seti running all the time

Hi Salaman what HSF are you using ?? What is the best HSF .. I was thinking of the GlobalWin FOP 38 ... any other recommendations for overclocking a 1.4 to 1.6 type of HSF that is reasonable in Price and good performance. Mins is 59-62C..... that is a little hot... using the VIA 266a MOBO.. I find the same CPU and config with the AMD 761 runs cooler and have the FOP 32 or 38 there... at only 46-48C... Why the difference ? yes on the 59-62 I am using an Alpha Pal 6036 oc to nearly 1.6 from the 1.4 chip.

different mb's read temps differently due to differences in thermal probe placement, manufacturer compensation, etc.

Ambient 24, Case 24, Idel 42, Load 48

1.4 TBird @ 1500MHz (10 x 150)
Default Vcore @ 1.75 volts and lots of airflow as you can see case equals ambient.

Using Motherboard Monitor 5 on an 8k7a+

Case- 24
Idle CPU - 36

I haven't tested for full load yet. So how high would my real temperatures be since this is using the on-board temperature diode?

I'm getting 38C cpu idle with sk-6 + 27cfm sunon. Case tmep is about 22C idle.

Current temps:
CPU = 48C
Case = 33C

Setup:
Athlon 1.4GHz @ 1.58GHz
MSI k7T266-A Pro2 mobo
Alpha 6035 heatsink
Thermaltake 6025A-2B fan
AS II

With retail HSF and monitoring w/MBM5: 23, 26, 55 under full load (44-46 idle).

Numbers on the CPU with an Alpha 8045 and delta 80x38: 42 full load , 33 idle.

Mikes got a point. I currently use an Akasa Silver Mountain w/ 38 cfm Delta (just switched to a diff fan though that's rated at 30 cfm). The case is the major contributor though. 2 intakes in the front, 1 on the side, blowhole on top, 2 exhaust in the back plus the psu fan. It's aluminum too so I guess the dissappation is better. But different mobos will tell you different temps (Asus comes to mind) I currently use an ECS k7s5a mobo

32 degrees @ 4% CPU usage (internet surfing). Case or CPU temp...I wouldn't know...

No case fans here...

Hmm, man i havent been up to date with overclocking, but isnt 40C like 100F. That seems way to hot. Reason i ask is cause i just set up a 1700 xp on soyo dragon+ with a volacano 6cu+, and i get about 40C with no case fans installed. I thought i messed up on thermal paste thingy part, was about to order the artic silver stuff and redo it. But from reading this post, my readings seem to be normal. I know the temperature moniter is not accurate but 40C(100F) seems Really dam hot. Last computer i overclocked was a celeron 300a to 450, and that thing was below 90F at full load, with no cpu fan(lots of case fans tho) And all of you arent worried about the 100F plus temps. Did i miss something here, are they making very heat resistant cpu nowdays, or is it cause computer prices are so cheap that people dont care if there cpu dies faster. Or is it the fact that the temperature readings are off by 10-20 degrees. Regardless, i'm just wondering given that my celeron gave out below 90F way back when with the same inaccurate monitoring, why arent u peps worried.

Hehe well actually thinking about it, the celeron temperates might have been not been cpu temperatures, but i think the abit that i had, had cpu temperature in bios.

Well I just want to know what is a safe range. I dont want to overclock, cause its already dam fast, and i aint compiling zillion line codes, so 1.5, 1.6, 1.7mhz same crap in my book.

P.S. Is it me, or is there like too many dam fans on your computer, geforce has a fan, motherboard fan to cool something forgot what, cpufan. Man i think this sucker is going to suck up lots of electricy, thank god theres no energy crisis.
