Hi Jan,
Thanks for joining this disscussion.

I have not had a CPU go up to 90c without a fail. I had a P111 that was of no
further use so pushed it till it stopped. I stopped the fan and it died at
85c. I think it was on it's way out anyway and probably failed at less than
spec.

It is just interesting to see at what temps we run our CPU's.

Thank you for you reply.
