I got AMD 1.333 with Abit KG7 raid motherboard.
With this motherboard, I can set a safe temperature limit like 50C to prevent the CPU from becoming a statistical charcoal. Unfortuantely, my CPU cooler( Volcano 5) is not
very efficient in keeping the temperature below
50C. So I raised the safe limit to 55C, and my
computer is now running at 1.507 ghz without any
crashes- stable for about a week. Is it safe to leave this setting(55C) without turning my AMD 1.333 into charcoal in less than a month?
