Idle temp means nothing. What's the temp after say an hour of prime95?It's the FX-9590 4.7GHz - at stock speed, at turbo 5ghz. But I disabled turbo and put him to be 5ghz all the time which he is running idle at 36-38°C.

6 gig 24/7 ain't happening no matter the cooling solution. That is a pipe dream..........a crack pipe dream.
It will heat soak. A realistic time frame would be in the 2 hour range. Probably not even that. For 5 gig 24/7 all you really need is good high end watercooling.
Less than the running fridge by itself.
You'd be better off just dumping the rad in a bucket of ice water. Even then, a couple hours max.
Can I ask why 5GHZ is inadequate and why you feel the need to run at 6GHZ?
What application will this be for?
