- I'm sorry but you're talking nonsense.
- Silicon semiconductors have max. chip temperatures of about 75 to 125 deg C.
- I may be wrong, but I think the maximum for the 486-33 is 85 deg C. The case
- temperature depends on the case type (ceramics or plastics) but will always
- be lower, approximately 40 to 60 deg C.
-
- Anyway, in PC-486's sold today, the max. temperature will be exceeded in most
- cases unless you are using an additional cooling fan *near* the CPU and/or
- an ICECAP or s/t like that.
