I just put together my first system and am thinking about oc it. I dl speed fan to see what my temps are at right now. My cpu idles @ 38C and at full load 43C. The entire system idles @ 36C. The ambient room temp is about 75F. Are these optimal temps to do some oc? This will be my first oc so what temps so I be looking to stay between? I am thinking below 50C at full load. My cpu is a amd 3200+ on an msi motherboard with a cooler master fan and heatsink. I am planning on oc my 6600gt when it arrives. It has an nv silencer fan on it so it should be good.
P.S. I read the stickies just trying to clear some stuff up!
 
keeping the CPU below 50C is a good plan. Other than that it sound like you are ready to OC.

Good luck and tell us about your results.
