Recently I noticed that when BOINC is running my cpu temp. rises from 45C to 60C !!!! I am quite sure it did not do this before.

CPU is PIV 2.8, Asus MB, 512MB

Does anyone else has this happen?

BOINC runs your computer at 100%, so it'll heat up.

Make sure you have adequate cooling and that you clean out the dust bunnies.

You are running at about the correct temp for an Intel stock fan, I changed to a volcano 7, and used Arctic silver grease and the temps dropped from 73 to 47 to 57, @ 100%, plus you need to keep it clean, get all the dust bunnies off the heat fins....

Thanks. I'll try changing the fan and grease.
