Your point is well taken.  That is why the Pentium III retail boxes ship with a
heatsink/cooling fan that is adequate for stable performance.  My only point is
that third party fans provide improved cooling performance than the Pentium III
retail box fan (not that it needs more cooling).

Your point is well taken.&nbsp; That is why the Pentium III retail boxes
ship with a heatsink/cooling fan that is adequate for stable performance.&nbsp;
My only point is that third party fans provide improved cooling performance
than the Pentium III retail box fan (not that it needs more cooling).

<p>The point is these are all tested overclocked to 800Mhz at default voltage

<br>the basic cheap heatsink/ fan is fine for running even overclocked

<p>Changing heatsink/fans to bigger coolers only gave me 5-7degrees cooler

<br>The Pentium 3 core does not need massive cooling to run stable
<br>The high temp/heat generated by Atlon cpus are a different story.
