Hello everyone,
Yesterday I finally got my new machine built. It has an Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700. I went all out and bought a pricey CPU Cooler, the ZALMAN CNPS9700. This cooler is HUGE. When running a torture test in Prime95 with the fan on full blast, the temps on core 0 run up to 65, core 1-63, core 2-57, core 3-58. I did not expect it to be this hot with this expensive cooler. I haven't overclocked anything yet, but I was planning on it.
Do I have anything to be concerned about?
Thanks in advance for your insight.
