I'm feeling adventurous. I want to overclock my CPU, milk it for what it's worth. I recently purchased and installed a "Cooler Master Hyper TX3" cooler. I ran a stress test for 3 minutes to see what the computer would max out at temp wise, which I monitored with core temp, and the highest they got to was 47 degrees Celsius. I feel like this is high though. I used arctic silver as my thermal compound.
Edit2: forgot to mention the 36/37 Celsius idle.
I wanted to overclock but I'm not sure if I can with these temps at stock settings?
Also what should I be doing to my DDR2 RAM when overclocking?
