Hi all,
I've got an E8500 E0 stepping CPU in an Asus Maximus II mobo, Freezer 7 pro cooler. I'm running the chip at 9.5 x 425 1.225v and it runs Orthos stable for many hours. If I try and up the CPU any more the PSU overtemps before anything else. I'm running a 500w Zelman PSU. It gets to about 52C before I call off the dogs.
Am I right in thinking that a more powerful PSU would resolve my temp issues?
A silly question, I know...
Thanks
Natty
