How far will be e2180 overclock?

[lolage]

I am prepared to buy a decent cpu cooler, but i don't want to be running it dangerously. I want to run it at a speed where it is stable and not overheating..

I have the akaska zen case.

How far will this overclock, safely?

Thanks.

Using the stock heatsink which came with it what kind of speed will i get from it?

Ive just clocked an E2160 from 1.8 to 2.34 on the stock cooler. 8 hours load and its 61deg. Fine by me. Id much prefer a better cooler tho tbh.

Reckon i could try 2.5GHz then on my stock cooler from 2.0GHz?

will let you know what the stock cooler is like in a few hours as i've just built my dad's new rig which also has a e2180 but is all stock, just got to stick windows on it first

Cool that would be very helpful, thanks.

When overclocking this will i need to insert better fans? Or is it down to the heatsink?

Im going to be overclocking to about 3.0GHz with a Arctic freezer pro with the default fans which came with the akasa zen case.
