It might catch on fire, and if it catches on fire, you will most likely, too. jk.

Prescotts are quite fast, and dont usually run too warm.

I've had one in my old giga-byte board, a 3.0E

 

[ionicle_old]

[Eguy]

I remember my 560/660 was at 60-80C but it didn't bother me, thats what they are made to operate at

 

[Dav0s]

i never let my celly go above 60C

 

[ionicle_old]

if thats what they operate that then thats ok

 

[NickS]
