. I thought the thermal limit was like 70 degrees?
i got it to 117 celcius before it shut down i wonder if that is a record on these forums haha 
I have seen AMD processors cook mate - and then explode. There was a video of a bloke doing just that over on Toms a few years ago. Can't find it now but hell it was an eye opener.
