As some of ya'll may know from other posts, I am getting my older Athlon A7A133 with 1.4 T-Bird in good shape to give to my daughter. Right now, it's running fine...I'm using it now...but I noticed in Everest that the +12v is reading around 12.7v to 13.07v...?? Is this within specs? The +3.3 is 3.28 and the +5 is 4.78....I know these are good, I'm concerned with the +12v.
Man, does that 1.4 Thunderbird run warm...!! Even with new tm and a larger fan it's still running about 60c...but when I direct another 90mm fan at it, it cools down to a comfortable 47c...so I know that a better all copper heat sink will really help...along with a 120mm fan that I will put in the side panel...an exhaust fan and an intake fan ( the case originally just had an 80mm exhaust and most of the air was stopped by the woefully small grill holes, which I'm gonna make disappear...
!!
Anyway...how about that +12v reading?
