hey thanks for the info guys. Really appreciate it. I might buy some AS5 when i get some time. Maybe even lap my cpu and heatsink. Kinda apprehensive about lapping though.
I plan to replace the q6600 in 2 years or so. Do you think it will last that long with its current set up?
I just overclocked my cpu to 3.6 and i am currently running a stress test. Everything seems okay so far but the temps are high.
Core Temp: 69,65,65,69
Real Temp: 64,64,60,60
which one is more accurate?
How dangerous is it too run these temps at 100% load?
Looking for some advice, I'm going to Fry's on labor day and I have 2 choices to make
I'm gonna buy the q6600 combo deal for $150. (also gonna replace the crappy motherboard)
I was wondering which ram to buy along with it
Kingston ...
