Will i find a huge increase in heat when running a dual core cpu compaired to my 3000+ winnie running at 2.3Ghz and 1.568v, which in this heat is running at 58c full load normally its between 50 and 55c
 
FWhy're you running it at such high voltage :eek:

The 3800's reach around 2.6 on stock volts so you should be FINE for heat.
 
because it needed a good beating to get to 2.3 so im making it pay for its sins, though im not actually sure might lower it and do some testing and see if its still stable
 
well so far ive managed to lower the voltage to 1.4v and it still seems stable, now i wonder why i left it so high when i first overclocked it :confused:
