Hi,

I was wondering what's the temperature upper limit of the Prescott CPU. I have a 2.8 Prescott and I'm a little bit concerned that 50 degrees celsius up to 70 depending on usage is a little bit too worrying!

Apologises if there's another thread for this, but when I typed Prescott in the search bar, it came up with too many threads!

It appears it starts at 80C, so no worries :cool:

Thanks for putting my mind at rest!

No problem, also remember that is a high-end prescott, you still have a lot of headroom with that 2.8
