Come on baby put out my fire!!!!!
I seem to be having a slight heat issue with my new AMD 850 T-Bird (not overclocked). It's on a Abit KT-7A Motherboard with 256 PC133. I have an Intel Heat sink + fan from my PIII 800 Boxed set on it now with thermal paste. (I'm using this heatsink/fan because the one I ordered didn't fit on this board) The mid tower case has one case fan in the front. The processor from start at room temp takes just over one min to get all the way up to 145 degrees F. Needless to say it then locks up. Anyone have any thoughts as to why it's heating up so darn fast? Thanks for your help.
