Q6600 on stock cooling: how far can I push it?

[Blitersety]

Alright, well it seems to be pretty stable at 2.85 and the temperatures are mid to high 30s, so I think I'll just be happy with 2.85 until I can get a good cooler like veedubfreak said.

Thanks for your help, everyone.

no problem...sorry if getting mistaken with the tjunction part.
And veedub is right...get an aftermarket cooler if you want to overclock...its more reliable.

Also make sure you've run prime95 for about 8-10 hours to guarantee that its stable.
