    Hey, if yr computer's running fine and all is well, there's no real need to worry about the temperature of certain components.
    My overclocked Mobile Athlon 2500+ maxes out at around 60 degrees celcius sometimes, yet my computer is completely stable for hours and hours at a time. I wouldnt fret (unless of course you are having major heat-related problems). Your post was a little vague on a few points :)

    The issue with yr monitor may be something to do with it's 'power saving' mode. When I start or restart my computer, the monitor always switches itself off briefly before re-initialising itself.
    Does it not come on at all? Maybe you could give us a few pointers to try to help you along (ie: does the power LED on the monitor change colour when your computer is restarted?) This may help us get a better idea of yr problem.

    Good Luck :thumb:

    If im not mistaken that is a little to warm for that chip. I dont even hit 60C when my heatsink is off. My system idles at 22C and under load its 32C.

    Im assuming you hand build this system with the A64. The Ailenware is designed to have a good airflow and cooling system for the processor. I Really think you should upgrade the cooling on the A64 because 60C is to hot IMHO for any chip.
