oc 3800x2 help needed.

[~>Dg<~]

well im new to this got it currently running at 2400 but temps seem high
cpu while doing a 3d mark test 63c mb 52c dont want to fry it.
while browsing net cpu is 50c mb 46c(using asus probe to monitor so dont know how accurate it is.)
my motherboard is asus m2n-mx what is safe mb temps/cpu temp,cpu cooler is a thermatake m216 i think.
is it worth getting a artic cooler pro ,what speeds do most 3800x2 do?
also heating is on full blast so ambient temp quite high.
ive only upped the fsb to 240 all rest auto do i need to change anything else sorry im a newb

Temp monitoring wise, go for Everest or Core Temp as they seem pretty accurate.

Cooling wise the Freezer is very good for the money, mixed bag when it comes to reviews, some love it, others arent so sure.

If you can afford then maybe the Tuniq Tower or Ultra.
