Hi all,

I have a Q6600 2.4 running @ 3ghz with the stock fan, on an ASUS P5E.
VCore voltage is at 1.25, FSB 333, DDR2 667, 1:1.
While running FSX on Ultra High settings I am getting the below temp readings on CoreTemp:
01/05/08 3006.00 59 55 50 51

Is this a good temp for the q6600 or should I try to lower it below 59?

Your help is appreciated.

Thank you

Here are some images I took while on idle

You're very safe at those temps, I would never go over 65 personally.

Looks like a really nice chip, get a cooler and take it to 3.8 or something :eek:
