Good temps for E4500 under load

[Colbaker]

Guys, What would be a good temp for a core 2 duo E4500 processor under load on both cores?

Thanks

are you talking at stock speeds, at its defult voltage?

not really, basically i am thinking of overclocking it and wanted to know it i need to get a new hsf, at the moment i am doing some video encoding on it (.mkv to dvd) and both cores are at 44 degrees, this is stock speed and voltage, do you thing i am gonna need a better hsf if i am going to overclock the chip?

thanks

Overclocked to 3.2 mine was at 45 max on load using Intel TAT with Thermaltake Blue Orb. This seems a bit low, so not sure if TAT reads the E4500 properly, although that was on stock voltage showing 1.275 in windows.

You had 3.2 at stock volts. Wow thats good.

Thats what I thought, but it just hits a brick wall about 3.25 whatever the voltage, was hoping it would do 3.6 with higher voltage but no luck
