Is it normal for my asus a8n32 sli deluxe chipset(nforce 4 x16 sli) to be running at like 54 load with sli enabled? It used to run at 42 before isn't 54 too high?

Hello,

What processor have you got? also what cooling system are you using?
Regards,

Alan.

I got an athlon 64 FX 60. My CPU is water cooled running at 35 to 38 load (Depending the temperature in the room). But the cpu is the only thing water cooled. My chipset is cooled with the default heatsink/heatpipe feature of this motherboard......

I don't think thats too high, If it gets to 65 - 70 then you might have to re asses the cooling needs of the system.
