Hi,
I've just noticed that on my 3000+ (week 38) with A8V, set to 9x240 with 5:3 divider, prime95 crashes after about 2 hours with 1.475 voltage and after about 5 hours with default 1.400. Generally the time of prime crash is more or less random, but i've observed the tendency to crash sooner with higher voltage (on 1.500v it crashed just during desktop activities). Can it be overheat? i'm using a stock HS & fan but the temps are 35-37 idle to 44-46 load (only slightly higher with higher vcore). I also have chassis fan and a PSU fan an the ambient case temp is about 27. I am thinking about replacing either CPU or MOBO or both so i'd like to get some feedback about that. If anybody has some experience with week 38 (17 septemer '04) please write too.
