hi, I have been running my phenom 2 x2 550 oc'd at almost 3.6GHz for the past 6 months. (203x17.5 @1.4 VID) i use a Arctic cooling freezer 7 pro rev 2. when running prime 95 it is stable @51 degrees. and idle at 25ish, is this normal temps for this kind of oc?
 
Yeah, normal temps (good temps). It's quite cool, but that's because it's a dual core which produces much less heat than a quad.
 
ok, do you think this cooler will cope if im successful in unlocking it to a quad/tri or will i have to reduce it's oc by much? or can you reccomend a cooler that would enable me to keep these speeds and these temps?

If you unlocked, I think the overclock would be fine, might raise max temp to 60-65 but it'd be ok.
