My home computer CPU seems to be running hot at 63C and I don't fully understand the voltage readings I have. The information below was taken from AIDA32 and matches the information I see when I go into the BIOS upon start up. What is the +2.5v circuit for? I'm only showing 0.34V. I may be worrying about nothing but if there is a problem I would like to correct it before I have a system failure when I can least afford it. I am also looking to build another computer with an AMD2600XP I bought at a really good price. I have everything to put the new unit together with the exception of the motherboard. Any suggestions about the mobo that has proven to be the most stable with this processor? I would like to stay below 5 if that is possible. My regular store has the KT4A Ultra MS-6590 at and recommends that board but I would really appreciate some feedback before making the decision to buy.
