Hey I just put together my new system:

Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3
Q6600
Tuniq 120
2 Gig Gskills
700w thermaltake power

And my Quad temps are at 68! And I haven't even overclocked anything yet. I really need some help, suggestions, anything please!

I was going also going to use a TUNIQ on a 965-ds3 with a q6600 B3, I guess i'll have to wait for a g0 or get a LCS.

I'm now looking into a Kandalf LCS. it has a BIG radiator.


Thanks for the post. :hello:

Do you have fans on the Tuniq? Q6600 cannot be passively cooled. If you do, check if the heatsink properly attached on the M/B. If it is, then check your case flow.

You should be able to hit 40C idle with Tuniq.
