If its 72 degrees now then i'd definitely say to watch it as the heat increases.

Get more fans or liquid nitrogen :D

Mine is now 72 degrees.....
is that healthy.....
I don't own an AMD, but this does not sound healthy at all.
will it survive the summer?
It is Spring now, so Ragerunner has correctly pointed out, that Summer will be here, and I would be worried if I were you.

You would need more adequate cooling methods, a fan, air conditioner, opening a few windows, changing the fans, installing new ones, buying a new case, new thermal compound, heat sink fans, DO SOMETHING to get it down :)

My 3.3GHz CPU atm, after a very hot day I might add:

32C - System (ordinarly 22C) +10C on the outside (temperatures taken from Autumn/Winter, now it is Spring so it makes sense for a +10 increase in temperature).

44C - CPU (ordinarily 37-38C) +6-7C inside, which is fine, considering I have older pIII chips running at 55-60C or thereabouts.

(This is not an Intel/AMD debate, just incase Winston decides to intervene :))

Holy smoke!

X has fallen victim to pages not being refreshed/loaded completely and hitting "submit reply".

I did that once before when the database was going nuts.

Database errors, too MySQL connections.
BOS has been quirky tonight (and on a few other occasions)

You're crazy dude.

You're a physics student, did you get to play around with liquid nitrogen like we did? Demonstrating maglev (well, superconductivity and levitation of a small magnet)

We had fruit, coke bottles, leaves, all sorts of things being covered in liquid nitrogen, then we smashed them against the brick wall LOL, it was a fun (and messy) lesson :D :D :)

Yep!!!

Play with it yesterday last period.

Was freakin mad.

We spent like 1 minute showing magnetic levitation and the other 59 minutes smashing things into pieces.

We picked flowers, balloons filled with air (changed into dried ice), banannas, paper and the big finale to the period a BASKETBALL!

Man, we poured liquid nitrogen all around the ball and smashing it onto the floor and it shattered into a million pieces.

The fun part was when I dipped my hand into the liquid nitrogen haha. Seriously, if you shove your entire hand into the liquid nitrogen and then pull it out quickly you won't feel a thing. Our teacher demonstrated it to us. He explained something about a layer of something in our skins that prevents it from freezing us if we dip it in and out quickly.

I have to say, I feel sorry for the cleaners that have to clean up the mess in the end. Hahahha, they going to wonder what the hell was going on in the classroom.

I guess anyone can "fake" MS-DOS outputs, but here's my systeminfo

Registered Owner: Huy
Registered Organization:
Product ID: 55274-640-xxxxxxx-xxxxx
Original Install Date: 13/07/2003, 5:02:08 PM
System Up Time: 0 Days, 8 Hours, 25 Minutes, 8 Seconds
System Manufacturer: INTELR
System Model: AWRDACPI
System type: X86-based PC
Processor(s): 2 Processor(s) Installed.
[01]: x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9 GenuineIntel ~
3317 Mhz
[02]: x86 Family 15 Model 2 Stepping 9 GenuineIntel ~
3317 Mhz

BIOS Version: IntelR - 42302e31


I've only edited my Product ID (incase anyone wants to reverse engineer the PID to calculate my VLK, which actually belongs to UNSW Corp VLM's lol)

But I wouldn't have a reason to fake the MHz's anyway, I use a lot of computing power on the single machine.
