Duckie Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 What do you guys think of my cpu? Any areas you think I can improve on? My cooling system isn't good at all, just a basic heat sink... anybody have any suggestions for that in particular? Here are the specs: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TulsaGeoff Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 What case do you have? I'd recommend Coolermaster's v8: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a ... aster%20v8 or Thermalright Ultra-120 Extreme: http://www.petrastechshop.com/thulhecpucos.html with these fans: http://www.petrastechshop.com/12yalod1cafa2.html this controller: http://www.petrastechshop.com/surhfanspcob.html This thermal paste (MX2) is regarded as one of the best along side OCZ Freeze. http://www.petrastechshop.com/arcomxthco.html These heatsinks are two of the best on the market and made for overclocking. What is your goal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duckie Posted July 10, 2009 Author Share Posted July 10, 2009 That basically looks like a mini AC unit. lol. Bad ass. Not sure I'd have that much room in my (already large) box for the controller/other units. =[.. Maybe I'll need a new box.. =] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomato Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 You could easily overclock that to at least 3.0GHz. I have the same CPU and I have mine overclocked to run at 3.0GHz with this heatsink and fan, and that wasn't even a difficult overclock.
