I have a system that I've had since 2012. AMD FX6300 @ 3.5. I never OCd it, so I just left the stock HSF on it. Well, yesterday I decided to see what I could get out of it. I started OCing it, and ramped it up to 3.8Ghz @ 1.2v. Idle was at about 36°C. When I put it through a stress test last night the temps climbed up to and leveled out at 59°C after about 15 min. This morning I went to Microcenter and picked up a CM 212 Evo that they're running a good sale on, and some AS ceramique 2. After installing it the idle temp was about 22°C, and the load temp after 20min only raised up to 29°C max. An extremely good improvement. Color me impressed. Over the next few days, I can't wait to see how far I can push this thing.
I know it's not as good of a setup as a lot of you guys have, but I am happy with it now.
