Hi everyone.
I just overclocked my core 2 quad Q6600 G0 and i didn't get the result i expected. My goal was 3.6 GHz ( 9x 400MHz with 1.45 Vcore) but after 15 min with prime 95 the highest temp was 69 celcius. I put the multi to 8 with 1.35 Vcore. No fail on prime 95 after 12 hours and max temps was 65 celcius. I'm not really happy with it because i lapped the cpu and i just received my Cooler Master Hyper 212+ wth MX-2. I got my HAF 932 for airflow.
My question is: do i need to re-apply the thermal paste or not? is it normal to get theses temps on Q6600 G0?
Thanks for helping me, really appreciate.
