With my current cooler I'm currently getting temps registering mid 60s and staying there whenever I play games. I'm clocked at about 3.2 GHz (up from default 2.8 GHz) and I am a bit worried this will damage my cpu. I am waiting to get enough money in the next month or two to get a water cooler as I'm sure these temps are due to the fact that one of my fans crapped out on me. can i stay at this clock for that long without serious harm to my cpu?
Thanks :D

some people including me (i also use a phenom II in OC) we say that the highest temps to operate this CPUs are not beyond the 62°C if exceeded you can damage it...

are you sure about the clock freqs?? the default speed for the phenom II 965 is 3.4GHz

well i have my phenom ii 555, and i unlocked it to 4 cares, i also used the multiplier, and NB freq, to get 3.65GHz with four cores and also a higher ht link and i just bought a hyper TX3 which is cheaper (and smaller) than the hyper 212 +, but i recommend you the hyper 212+, the performances says that the 212 evo can decrease only one or two celcius degree (comparing with 212+) so i think it doesnt worth the price
