Safe temps

i get about 75ish C after 30min of full load, is this dangerous for my cpu? (this is temp without window open, and its still pretty cold so with the window open/case open temps go down about 10-15C), i did some testing for about 5H and nothing went wrong, but could it slowly be killing my cpu?

Re: Gettin tired of Asus....

I'll just chime in here............. ASUS are one of the only mobo makers who keep updating their BIOS. There is currently an issue with ASUS boards when using very high speed ram, either DDR2 or 3. If you clock the ram (ddr2) to <1GHz, you need to set the Trfc timing to greater than 52. The highes...

Re: Gettin tired of Asus....

Well I have taken the case door off, and I have a few 80mm fans blowing air into the case... but would chipset temps really make that big of a difference for 1MHz on the fsb?

Re: Gettin tired of Asus....

The bios was recently flashed, and I've had this problem every time with Asus boards.. I somehow don't think this is a strictly one board problem, I think if i RMA it I will just end up with the exact same board with the exact same problems... the odd thing is, it kinda just falls into loops, if it ...
