My X800 Pro VIVO has been flashed with the XT PE bios since the day I bought it. It idles at around 39ºc but I generally have the window open a lot, and it's been snowing a hell of a lot in England recently :D

Anyway, I decided to see if it could cope with heat, so I closed the window, and ran 4x Prime95 (I have Dual xeons with Hyperthreading, so one per CPU, just to make the case nice and warm) and I ran ATITool with the 3D view open for an hour or so. When I came back to the computer, the X800 was at 66ºC.

Is this acceptable?

Thanks :)

Well. I just noticed that the fan speed is always on 66% when it's running at ~60ºc, so it can't be THAT bad :)
