dihartnell Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 WTF? YES! +1, Buy yourself a halfway decent cooler before overclocking. If you eventually replace the CPU and/or mobo you can reuse on the new one if you decide to go that way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyguy2000 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 Yeah.... this would be why.... what temps is that putting out while P95'n I don't know but yeah I am a noob to ocing so I was not enlightened to this simple fact so I will buy an aftermarket fan and try it again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flyguy2000 Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 ok thank you everyone for putting up with my noobishness I will buy a new heatsink and oc now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El_Capitan Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 ok thank you everyone for putting up with my noobishness I will buy a new heatsink and oc now No worries. A couple years down the road, you'll forget all about this... but we won't! Flyguy2000: El_Capitan, you're wrong, the 24-Core cannot get overclocked to 14.4GHz, that's impossible! El_Capitan: That's because you're using the stock cooler. Remember the time... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
IVIYTH0S Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 ok thank you everyone for putting up with my noobishness I will buy a new heatsink and oc now No need to be so hard on yourself! Oh and run HWMonitor alongside of P95! Reading back, we're the noobs for not seeing you were on the stock cooler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyamdfanboi Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 umm i hate to go against these guys but no.. stock cooler wont make it crash.. i ran mine higher than 3.45 with a stock cooler.. didnt run that hot.. sat around 55degs? yes it is higher than what it would be with a decent cooler ( 46deg max on my 4ghz 1055t using coolermaster hiper 212+) but it shouldnt crash.. shouldnt get hot enough to crash at all.. BUT IT IS DEFINATELY RECOMMENDED Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyamdfanboi Posted September 30, 2010 Posted September 30, 2010 yer i know but mine didnt crash.. n it didnt run that hot.. i just built my mrs a system and ill see how far i can oc that with stock cooling... but my 945 ran 3.45 without any problems at all on the stock fan.. didnt even need to raise voltages... :-S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could even bump up the voltages by a small bit to make it to 3.4 GHz and temps wouldn't go up past 60C (limit was 73C). However, once you start getting up to the 3.6 GHz and 3.7 GHz, you need a good bit of higher voltages and an after-market cooler is definitely necessary.
