This is my first proper overclock, and I'm pretty happy with it. Except the temperatures, which should be fixed by re-applying some new thermal paste. Anything I should change?
E6600@3.4Ghz- 9x378mhz
Idle temperature- about 40 degrees
Load temperature- 64 degrees maximum
CPU voltage- 1.38750 volts
Memory multiplier- 2 (756mhz)
CPU cooler- Tuniq Tower 120
I think the temps are so high because I didn't apply the thermal paste properly. Is 64 degrees safe for a few days until I buy some more thermal paste properly? I assume it will be, because 62 degrees was the load temp with the Intel HSF at 2.4ghz.
8x multi? What's you're motherboard?
That would mean the RAM would be overclocked wouldn't it? I don't think my RAM will overclock much, as it's pretty cheap A-DATA stuff. Still, it's worth a try.
