jgv115 Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Q9550 to be specific. How far could you overclock it until the heat is too much to bear. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coors Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Probably about 3-3.2Ghz depending on how cool you keep it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgv115 Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Alright then, does it matter which aftermarket cooler you have? Are all aftermarket coolers better than the Intel stock one? And also, if you buy a aftermarket cooler, do you have to buy anything else to put it on or something? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seriphx Posted June 15, 2009 Posted June 15, 2009 Probably get some Arctic Silver 5, and maybe a Coolermaster V8 HSF or something? They seem to work really well. That might get you to 3.8Ghz or something, I'm not sure and after all every chip is different Enjoy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
