Safe CPU temp?
Wondering whats a safe temp to have it running it when over clocking? My warning limiter goes on at 60C, which seems REALLY hot!

What CPU and HSF sink do you use?
60C is the hottest a CPU will go without getting into some serious trouble.

Also, post your current temps.

I have a P4 2.4 with the stock fan not sure what the heat sink is. Im currently overclocked to 2.8 (to be safe for now).

My current temp is 27C. Soon as I got done playing Warcraft3 for about 10 minutes, I stopped to check and it was at 37C, then dropped back down to 27C.

Your temps are fine my 3.06 @ 3.45 runs at 33C idle and 41C under full load and I havn't noticed any problems with it at all.
