Oh Yeah!

Then... probably a Barcelona chip and a new mobo.

FlightSimBoy- when I get my Tuniq Tower, I will OC the e6600 to 4.0

As for the quad core, I'll be more careful with it.
 
your chip might not get up to 4.0, some chips dont even get past 3.5 so dont count on getting it that high ;)
 
WOW, check this out:

I lowered CPU volts and upped the FSB and look what I got (this is stick cooling)

Umm why do I only see one Prime95 there??? That means your only stressing one core. And 65C with only 1core stressed isn't good man. Also thats just prime starting as well give it 30mins to a hr and that temps going to be another 5-10c hotter after it gets into higher FFT length.

Yes rudster was right it supposedly doesn't throttle till 85C but thats not a good thing so I wouldn't go past 70C max. Thats my limit myself.

Your way over that bound Thelis. I mean your only using 50% of your total cpu and your at 65C to start.

Check out that graph I have on the review of the 9700Zalman the temps change even at 100% at low points vs high points i've had as much as a 12C difference between temps all at 100% usage.
