Putting together a new pc for a friend and just installed the cpu, got a tube of grease with the heatsink but unknown to me it's twice as thin as the stuff I normally use, so being heavy handed I squirted an inch long stream of thermal paste over the mobo :frusty:
Nice little cleanup job I have now.
Jonno :cool:

Balance it precariously on the edge of a desk or something in CrabGirl's (your) bedroom and hope she knocks it over so you can blame her.Quote:

While we're on the subject, does anyone have a link or know the Bios settings for an AMD Athlon 64 3300?
I've looked all over AMD's site and google and can't find default settings.
I think it should be 1.575v which it is set on, I'm just a little concerned as first time I booted it the temp went upto 78C, so I stripped it and reapplied some decent thermal paste, now it's stable at 55/57C which is ok but seems a little high while idling in bios.
I'm gonna go ahead and load the os but meanwhile if anyone could answer my question it would be much appreciated :)

Funnily enough, this morning as I leant over to kiss Crabgirl goodbye on my way to work (she was still in bed...) my laptop slipped from my shoulder bag and cracked her on her pelvic bone.Quote:

Yeah temp at idle is too high and I'm thinking it's gonna go upto maybe 80-90C when she starts running video and graphic design software, it's installing xp atm so I have to wait before I can check it. I guess first thing to put in is Everest.

Thats the cpu, got it with a barebones kit and it looks as if it's a discontinued line :rolleyes:
I thought maybe the sink n fan is too weak but it says can handle upto a 3800+

Apparently.
If you're gonna ask me where I found that information, it's gonna take me a while to track it down - came across it setting up my M2N32-sli DL WE & Athlon64 3500+.
