Cooling for LGA 775
I am planning on overclocking my 2.8GHz prescott cpu, but even at default
settings the cpu is hitting above 60 C during a full load with the intel fan/heatsink. Is there an inexpensive solution to the heat problems? Or would a heatpipe cooling solution be better. And while I'm on the subject of cooling, is there a good NB cooler out there? I have an Albatron board, which I have read benefits from upping the NB voltage when overclocking. Thanks for any help!

Chris Believe it or not, 60 C is normal for any (Prescott) Under full load @ 60 C is doing really well. I've read reports of up to 70 C on air. Those things just run hot, that's the way it is. If you want it cooler, the only ways to do this are water and other cooling methods. Denny. ;-) |
