My Pentium4 2.93GHz operates at 52 degrees C. It has an automatic variable speed fan that keeps that temp. I hear the fan speed up when the processor is thinking very hard.

My P4 2.8 overclocked to 3.2 runs at 50 under a full load, watercooled. 42 idle.

Usually People use C for their temps. 100F to C=37, 103F = 39C. Yea, I say your temps are really good! There are new coolers out that are better than watercooling! Ie, Noctua NH-u12 and its brother, NH-U9 (which is smaller). Both are very quiet, and even beat a Zalman.

Sorry, i am still trying to grasp metric measurements. So my temps are very good? So it would safe to overclock it? Hmmm.....

amd is really good for gaming and 3d graphic designs,but the problem in it is there is no proper cooling system and thefan given may not be enough,if u r going for it,ill suggest u to buy an another fan and fit it

I dont know what happened to my last post, but Yes that is safe. Your CPU ranges from 37 to 39C. Thats normal for a Really good cooler. There are better heatsinks that get near and better than water cooling temps, such as the Noctua Nh-U12 and ThermalTake Big Typhoon.Those temps usualy range from the lower up 20's to the lower 30's

Wow I must have not seen my reply...

Umm, Id say Yes. But Stop If you start getting Near 50C. They can withstand temps up to around 60C, But I wouldnt risk it. Once my proc gets to 66C, It freezes and I have to restart.

Yes, i will look at a non-stock cooler. Thanks!

I suggest (1) Noctua NH-U12 or NH-U9 (if you can find it), Thermal Take Big Typhoon, Or Zalman (I forgot which one though..). They all go around 40 Bucks.

sarcasim is unwarrented. windows grows faster than moores law. it is an immutable law of nature that software expands to consume all storage and cpu cycles available.

I think the real problem lies with the motherboards. Screw old technology, bring on the faster mobos!
100 Ghz is impossible.
Electricity moves at the speed of light , calculate for yourself how far it would be able to get at 100Ghz , assuming a perfect (non existing) enviroment.

Even for prescott's intel had the toughest time designing the cache lines to operate at only 3/4 ghz

No, it is not. Here is the link;

It was possable by bringing the CPU just above absolute zero. The CPU probably isn't a fully functional CPU, but it is a start. It was made using germainium mixed with the silicon.

ROFL yeah, I'm sure that Intel should listen to a 15-yo kid. You have EVERYTHING all figured out.

As of right now, Intel has the fastest platform out, PERIOD. The core 2 duo chips kill anything AMD has to offer in every single benchmark out there. If you want the best of the best, there is no question that you should get a core 2 duo platform.

And what is it that they should listen to? I never said they should do anything.
