Hello Steve, Re: The motherboard temperature after an hour is 31C. The cpu temperature (measured on the heatsink) is 37C. Thanks. I haven't bought a commercial thermistor but have been intending to get some. I do have a hand held unit with a remote thermistor on the end of a 8 ft cable. I was curious so I did a quick check a while back with that unit. My processor temperature was similar to yours, and like you, I just attached the thermistor to the heatsink/fan unit. Thanks for your earlier posting about making one's own temp probe. I had recently seen an article about "Rolling Your Temp Probe". k7v.com It gives the part # of a Radio Shack 10K thermistor...it costs about $2.00 but you provide your own connector and cable. Seems like we used to buy thermistors for a few cents from places like Jameco but that was many years ago <hehe>. BTW, the 0.18 micron 700 MHz processors are running about 10 degrees F cooler than the 0.25 micron 700 MHz processor(the 0.25's were really tampered/overclocked Athlon 500 MHz processors as per earlier post). Kindest regards, CrazyMan
