    Mine as well... but I recall this being a big jump up from the max of my original nforce board, or any other board for that matter. I seem to recall something more like 20-25c on other boards. Whether the "system" temperature was coming from the same place I'm not sure, though.

    Weird...
    I inserted some thermal grease on the cpu...and got a decrease from 60+ to about average 55...
    I called the motherboard's tech support, and he said that the average temp for a Tbred amd 2100 should be about at 55C...
    hmm...probably cuz my heat sink isn't as good?
    I'm using a coolmaster HHC-001 for AMD athlon XP up to 2600+ and intel P3 up to 1.13 GHz. I supposed it's not a super fan...

    Sandra reads my CPU temp as 32C
    The 55C is from Digidoc, which takes the internal temp.

    The hell. I called Kingmax about my DDR400 ram...
    I told them that I have it in dual channel of 256 MBs...and they said that my ram is double sided, so it won't be stable...

    I have never heard of this restriction... almost all ram is double sided... that's BS.

    So are you running your FSB at 190 MHz, then, I hope?

    I failed using 380...something just wasn't right. I can go safely at 370 tho. Not bad. Dual channel too.

    You mean you can't get past 167fsb?

    Dude, that really sucks...
    Did you try all the usual things, nb cooling, vdd, 2.9vdimm, etc... ?

    So then, you are running 185fsb?

    If you're only increasing the memory speed, you'll see almost no increase in performance at all..
    The fsb and memory should be running in sync.

    You can't change the vdimm?!?
