Need Help on my P4 2.4 B C1 and Epox 4PEA+

Hi nice site btw,

I just got a new computer, an intel P4 2.4B C1 SL6EF and an epox Mobo 4PEA+. Also got the Thermaltake Spark 7 HSF.
Am from the philippines a tropical country where ambient is about 30-35 C. I also usa a Lian Li PC 65 case 2 intake in front 1 exhaust at back and 1 exhaust at top of the casing, all aluminum casing. Upon Installing i put AS3 on my cpu, upon boot up of cmos i get CPU temp of 46-48 then it stabilizes to 49-50. Using MBM 5 i get a temp of 48-50 idle and 58-59 C with load. Are this temps. normal for a P4 with 533 FSB. I tried using a new P4 chip same results, New Mobo same results.

So i tried ocing my system to 145 MHZ multiplier which got my system to 2.55 gig now same temps. been running it for 2 days now as we speak with prime no probs, am using a TQI PC2700 @ 2-5-2-2 mem settings all voltages are stock. can i still up the MHz of my system? am worried about the temp readings tho

Thanks a lot for ur help

Jeff

overclock it to the max then worry about temps
besides the p4 will downclock on heat
so shouldnt hurt anything
