well i have my 3.2e at 4ghz on air ( using the zalman cooler at full speed )

and yeah,i think its at 1.45v on load.

i play world of warcraft all the time when i have free time now so yeah my comptuer always on load.

anyways

i wanted advice as to whether itll be safe to keep playing on this chip. @ 4ghz. its probalby just becuase im a stat whore but i like it at 4ghz

temps on the higher detail maps get to about 63-66C tops. its around 55-60c regular

any advice woudl be good.

i know that i fi keep playing.. itll shorten the life on my chip to hell so yeah.
 
yea thats a pretty high OC on just air... though i dont know much about pentiums anymore:p u could go water and have lower temps... much safer=o
 
well that seems really high to me.. i'd be safe and lower it a little. i don't know how much a CPU helps on WoW, i'm not sure how much of a difference you'll see. I'd lower it some. And look into water cooling, you'll be able to push it higher and keep it cooler, and lengthen the life of your chip.
 
reason im using air is.. mainly becasue i dont want to go water, anyway yeah, i think cpu @ 4ghz gives me about 15-20 fps

o well, ill just do what i can , thanks for the hlep anyway
