Hi, attempting a further overclock on my FX6300 and was wondering the safe temps I can go up to. I'm currently running stable in prime95 with 4.5ghz and 1.38V, cputemp seems safe at 57C (under 60 was what I was told), however TMPIN1 is getting up to 75C.

(It is currently the hottest time of year in the UK, ambient temps of ~28-30C, it is very rarely like this!)

Is this ok? What exactly is TMPIN1 measuring and how can I cool it further?

Mboard is MSI 990FXA-GD65, I'm running with a Zalman CNPS10X Optima cooler.

Win7-64, 8GB RAM
