Hi I want to ask, tommorow I will receive new motherboard, suitable for overclocking my 6600K (Z170 chipset). I want to ask, do I need new cooler? Currently, I have ARCTIC Freezer Xtreme Rev 2.0. What GHz can I reach with this cooler, to be safe and cool simultaneously?
 
Solution
should be good for what ever your cpu is capable of.
lets say for 4.6 ur cpu should be idling around 30-35c depending on ur ambient.
on stress tests expect it to be 60-70c
all this being said with good case ventilation

btw what mobo are u getting?
