Well, just wondering why everyone is complaining about the piledriver hot with the stock Heat sink. This is my first ever DIY build, so i would think that overclocking this core would bring much heat, but i got the contrary. Im running the amd overdrive without turbocore at 4.5gHz (remember, brand new to this stuff) and 1.3 as my cpu voltage. Should I go any farther?
Under 100% load for 1 hour: 54.6C-56.9C
Build:
CPU: AMD 8350fx w/ stock amd cooler
MOBO: MSI 990FXA-GD80
RAM: Kingston 8GBx1 1600mHz
Graphics Card: EVGA 660ti SC v1
PSU: Thermatek 750W 80 Bronze
CASE: Some old Atx Midsize case with crappy airflow

Im thinking about buying a Nzxt Phantom 410 (Cause i got a small desk) and a Corsair h100i/ that air cooler. I just thought that i could do an already built water cooler, and eventually build a custom liquid loop that would go to my soon to be EVGA SLI 660 ti cards, and my CPU. BTW, do you have any ideas on how much a loop like that would cost to make "For future reference?" (ie Christmas)
