I am having a HUGE problem right now. I have an OEM e6300 that I have being 'cooled' by a zalman 9500, but I think something is wrong. When I oc to 2.8ghz my idle temps are 56 degrees!! When I put it back to stock fsb I am still running at 54 degrees idle!!!! WTF!!! I have re seated the zalman at least 7 times so far, till my arctic silver finish and I had to even try using the one that came with the zalman. I just thought 65nm would be running cooler than the 3000+ Venice I had up till recently. Dont get me wrong, the chip flys, but I am concerned about the heat because especially for a 65nm cpu, degrees in the 60's is dangerous.
