Hi everyone,

 

I recently bought a Scythe Mugen II Infinity cooler for my Q6600.

 

The CPU is currently running at 3ghz~ oc'd.

 

I was just wondering what you thought about these temperatures and if you think I should ease back a little, I've seen the q6600 running at much higher speeds but these temps seem a little high to me? Not sure.

 

Under heavy load (Prime 95):

 

Core Temps: 66 - 72 degrees
CPU Temp: 52-55 degrees

 

I haven't got a huge amount of experience in overclocking (this is the first CPU I've attempted it with) but the system seems to be running fairly stable. The VCore is set at 1.3875v (I think, i've seen the bios screen so many times I forget >.> )

 

Thanks in advance for any help/advice you can give.
