Hello, are idle temps 24/22c and stress 31/33C on E6600 cores at stock with aftermarket cooling pretty good? :confused: Havent a clue since i + my two bro's recently left 6 years of AMD loyalty behind. :rolleyes:

Good to hear. :cool: Results taken using Scythe Infinity with x2 Akasa Ambers on Asus P5K-Deluxe mobo (fits board to my suprise).

As long as it's stable, then what does it matter! :)

Coz its going to be overclocked a fair bit, as i said im clueless to what it should be around with aftermarket cooling since ive spent 6 years AMD; hence the thread. I thought temps seemed a tad too good compared to my old 4800+ (32/34c idle at stock with same cooler). Just instaled the Asus PC Probe II software bundle for a laugh. :rolleyes: Mobo a bit toasty with that passive cooling. :eek:

 
Well what ever the relative science, all i can tell you all is when placing my hand on heatsink pipes they not even remotely warm.

Incidentally, what mobos are you running with these temps, and when did you buy your CPU's?

Asus P5K Delux and CPU new as of today.
 
I should add, this is the 3rd system ive built using this combi of E6600 & Ininity cooler (One for me, two for my younger bro's), and other two systems are showing much the same results (been playing about with other two last 1/2hr)...
 
All 3 PC's round mine for now, installed them last 2 days and in process of working out everything in BIOS etc and making sure i dont kill anything due to my lack of recent Intel based experiance. I'll get them all overclocked etc and report back my findings here (might be couple of days, lot of work on at mo).

Dont insist anything :confused: , just stating what i see and not looking for arguement(s)...
