Intel says 100*C is not in a plastic casing of a laptop. 100*C is just a motherboard sitting in the open with a Pentium M in it. Intel is saying the cpu itself is capable of 100*C before it comepletely destroys itself. But you have to count in thermal throttling. And that happens waaaaay before 100*C. Happens at roughly 70*C. Where the cpu will throttle and will perform horribly. Any processor can handle very high heat, but will the thermal throttling kick in before it? YES IT WILL. I can run my A64 at 1.9V no problem, do i want to? no, i dont, it runs the risk of random reboots and very high temperatures. I've seen people run DDR2 at 3.0V, does the DDR2 survive? YES. Does it perform like it used to after? NO. Will that all said and done, it's up to YOU whether you want to change your temperatures or not, and based upon your decision whether to mislead people and feed them with the wrong information.
