    I thought I'd run TAT on my system listed below to see how it went and after a couple of minutes it got up to a whopping 84 degrees Celcius! Is this normal for these chips? I suppose cooling wouldn't be ideal in a laptop but my E4300 PC overclocked an extra 1.2Ghz doesn't get that hot under TAT...

    Yes it is normal, I ran 2xPrime95, and my cpu went up to 80c, but I stopped them, didn't want to go further.

    The cooling in notebooks isn't all that great.
