my athlon 64 overclocked and fans undervolted runs at full load at about 50c and that is with a room at about 80-85 F

the unstableness i bet is either not updated chipset drivers - or something wrong with the setup - how do you do with prime95 or memtest86?

if your computer is crashing - the problem may not stem from heat - it may be a memory problem - have you tried running memtest86 or prime95?

how can i remove the 20 pin atx connector?

I am trying to sleeve my cables and i thought my molex remover would be able to do it - but it can't - i found an atx 20 pin remover from svc - but i don't want to shell out another 25 dollars? is there another alternative or maybe a site for something that is 10 dollars? thanks all

how to apply arctic silver 5 to athlon 64 cpu?

I was wondering how to do this - i will be building my first computer and don't want to screw up - i've heard of people applying some between the heat spreader and cpu AND the spread and hsf - would it be beneficial to take the heat spreader off? or what is the best way - my cpu/mobo comes tomorrow :)
