depends on what you mean by turbo mode.. if your talking about overclocking it then you would want to look into something like coolermaster 212 evo or a closed loop water cooling solution .. but if you choose to go that far might as well install a custom water cooling loop

Up to about 4.5GHz it works OK.
- Sometimes the cores will get too hot at it will throttle back, but your 'overall' performance will be higher.
- It'll just stutter when it gets too hot.

No not overclocking, just intel turbo, up to 3.9 ghz
