wait so you can adjust the temp for shutdown right? 85F isnt high at all! for an AMD, mine runs at around 130-140F, bump that up and problem solved |

Of those 4 systems I've got, 3 are AMD's. What proc do you have that's running at those temps? His is a 1900. |

85 is really high if its celsius. You shouldn't be above 55 if you're just in the BIOS. But yeah, 85 Farenheight on an Athlon is nothing. You might try pulling off the heatsink and cleaning all the thermal paste off with rubbing alcohol. Then reapply some quality stuff properly and reseat that heatsink. I've cured heat issues a couple of times by doing this. |

I already cleaned everything off and redid that crap when swapping the mobo, but I'll give it a shot again. I used Arctic Silver. Don't know what number/name of the specific stuff it was though. I thought that stuff was pretty good....although it's like trying to clean baby snot off whatever it gets on. |

85 c is like melt your processor's core into goo hot and if it's getting anywhere near that just in the BIOS you've definitely got an improperly seated fan/heatsink. You should really be worried if your processor is hitting 60 c even under a full load. |
