I would say that,that is way to hot. Have you tried putting thermometer inside the case to check if the sensor is reading correctly.

...but a while ago when I installed a Athlon XP I found out that the temperature was not allowed to rise above 80-90 degrees Celsius. IMHO even that is far too high for anyone to feel comfortable.
In my box the processor temp is around 55 degrees Celsius. I have put Motherboard Monitor to shut it off if it reaches 65 degrees. This is pretty warm compared with temperatures that are reported by the freaks in overclocking forums, they tend to keep their processors at around 40-45 degrees Celsius (using extreme coolers and a lot of fans...). My temp is rel high as I have put the box inside an office box and built it into a kinda shelf thus making it nearly soundless.

The hottest mine gets is 55 C, so yes I would say yours is too hot. What HSF are you using? What did you use to apply the HSF? Try and use Arctic Silver and make sure the the whole HSF is touching the core.

I got a Duron 900 cpu it was runing at 90 celius using a golden orb type hs&f(clone?) & that just in the bios, I fitted a hs&f from a P3-700 & it dropped to 85 in win98.

It seems to be still to hot compared to the P3-700 temps (55 celius) 37 degrees using GloblalWin F-38's.

thanks
