is this alright?

[aspire]

it will but thats pushing it a bit as i would never let my cpu get above 50. when your temps hit 55 your starting to screw your cpu up and are reducing its lifespan

ok man thanks. i'll try and keep it under 50c then. this zalman should do th trick. upgrading from a 60mm stock HSF to a 120mm HSF with copper HS. haha i only planed to spend $650 on this computer. i got $1200 in it now

thats getting a bit high, u might wanna watch it u dont wanna go frying ur cpu. there are a few programs that u can use to cool ur cpu if u rly rly want (ive never used any so i dont know if it affects performance)

 

[H4x3r]

it shouldn't fry it cause the max temp is like 79c. but i'm gonna let it hit 52c at max
