Again, I apoligize if I was rude. Just that damn dog....

F = 32 + (C*1.80) or the other way around: C = (F-32)/1.80.atari2600a said:I forgot the equation to convert C to F, so what's 90C in F?
Yes, 4x133 sounds likely. I don't think Intel ever made any 8x66 MHz processors, at least not according to the processor specs at Geek.com.the manufacturors speed is 533MHz. (4x133MHz maybe?)
dongfeng said:Things to do:
1. Get some thermal paste and restick the CPU
2. Set the BIOS settings to 533MHz
3. THEN monitor your motherboard temperature
You might find that Windows 98SE would run better on your system (especially under load), 2000 seems to struggle slightly on 256MB. Especially for games, you want all the available memory you can get!
lol, I don't believe a katmai p3 is worth the trouble.DimensionDude said:Another useful cooling tip is to polish the heatsink where it contacts the cpu. I use 400 grit sandpaper, wet. Put the sandpaper on a flat surface (glass is best) and move the heatsink in a figure 8 pattern. It doesn't have to be a mirror finish, but the smoother, the better.
This brought the idle temp of an AMD XP 3200+ from 115F to 90F. Max load temp went from 149F to 135F.

Current bid 12 SEK ($1.70) with just a few days to go, plus the dreadful shipping. However it is from a branded computer (Fujitsu-Siemens), but I think they have less own solutions than other brands. Not that I really need one and it could be DOA. If the seller was local though..
For internet and text? yesIs an TNT2 Model 64 good?

Funnel?) out of carboard that, tightly fitted, went from the chassis fan to his CPU fan. He claimed it to have dropped the tempurature to 40-something degrees ferinheit. Does this sound realistic to you guys?
