Xtremely High Voltage
I just got fold3 back online. In a new form
Got tired of fold3 crashing all the time so it had been down for about 2 weeks. Now I just replaced it with an A64 2800+ which should perform better I'd think. I repaired a 3000+ which went in someone else's system, and that 2800+ from there came to me. I'll have to watch it though, this asrock board it is in has some trouble - the AGP slot is totally dead, if I put an AGP card in it the system won't even power on. As long as that is the only problem though that is fine, I just put a PCI card in there anyway! If the rest works, I get the board for $10....
Now a question, currently it is running in open air and load temps hit 56C. This is a 130nm newcastle CPU, and I know once I get it put in the box where it belongs it'll run a few degrees warmer and may hit 60C. Is this OK for these 130nm chips? If not I can spend an extra $10 and get a stock cooler from an FX-70 with quad heatpipes
Currently it is on the same cooler that the celeron was on - I don't know why, but asrock had put this strange bracket on the board that had socket 478 heatsink mounting along with the standard socket 754/939 nubs
But hey, if this cooler is enough for it then it saves me $10
