Couple of OC questions about my 860
Last response: in Overclocking
So my 860 wont go below ~37c @ 2,8 ghz. This is with an artic cooler freezer 7 rev 2 cooler, got artic cooling 5 cpu paste on it.
At multiplier @ 20,0 and blck @ 200 (4,01ghz) it is idleing at 47-48c with closed chassi.
Feels a bit to high doesnt it?
The fan is around 2060-2150 rpm (2500rpm fan) @ turbo boost.
Also at stock cooler i had the same problem, almost atleast. 41c @ 3,6ghz and vcore @ 2,55
Now vcore is at 3,75
Mobo temp is around 29c in bios.
So, any ideas?
Last time i tried prime95 i hit around 72-74c
And i saw some other topic saying above 75c is probably damaging the cpu with I7 series..
I could use some feedback. Thanks.
Edit: By the way in bios my cpu temp is at 57-58c![:/]( ":/")
- But all windows application ive tried says alot lower temp, atm im running at 4,01 ghz and temp is 48c.

I was thinking of another shopping spree (just got a couple of 5870's) and was thinking about getting Obsidian 800D with a H50 and a corsair hx 1000w
Cause atm im using antect twelve hundred packed with cables and rather sucky airflow. Aswell as the 20$ air cooler my devoted overclocking friend told me was fine to get.
And in the next month (end of february) i was hoping to afford a new mobo and a I930..
Would all this be a decent idea? All these will go fine together right?
By the way clocked down my cpu to 3,6 ghz atm and its running at 42c idle and around 65c @ prime95, thats okey right?
