unknown said:ok thanks i got AMD 1300MHZ living in canada i just checked the temperature (using pc wizard) it said 70C

ah a thunder bird, no? yea thats probly aroound the norm 4 those (with stock coolin); those things had the nickname 'hot plates'
Your T-Bird will give out round 70Watts of heat @ full load and ~60Watts @ idle
AMD reccomends its max temp @ 95C
