You should really post in the 'overclocking' forum not 'general hardware'

hmmm, I would say those temps are a little to hot... though in saying that, I have heard seen some people hitting temps in the low 90's on other forums..

But I personally wouldn't want to have my chip getting as hot as 90c... I thought that the Titan Fenrir was supposed to be a really good HSF...

I am using a Zalman 9700HNT on my i7, and with a 4GHz o/c my load temps hit around 84c on the hottest core...

::edit::

Like the last poster mentioned, you would have better luck posting this in the "overclocking" section of the forums...

seems to be a bit to hot but in the end its personal how hot you can go i wont go about 70 really btu that is quite hard to do with a i7 from what i know especially with oc'n it

These things i7's seem to run hot. There have been loads of post's about them hitting 90 degrees. Far too high for my liking.
