Hiya,
I finally ended up getting a 6420 and Gigabyte P35-S3 and its OC to 3.5GHz so far with no probs (not done much more than about 45 mins stress test with Orthos yet tho).
My question is, is it best to have the fan blowing air onto the heatsink or sucking air away from the heatsink? I've got a Noctua NH-U12F, Speedfan reports the Cores are at 58C but the heatsink is only slightly warm at the bottom and pretty much cold at the top.
Cheers,
Steve
