QX6700 Temps

[NachT]

I've just been reading around abit and I know this CPU gets hotter than the dual cores, but from what i've seen the load temps on this CPU are 70 - 85C !

Is this right? those temps were using water cooling aswell. I was thinking about getting one of these CPU's but if the temps are realy that high... I might be getting second thoughts.

Can anyone that has this CPU post what your idle / load temps are please? and also your clock speed and cooling used. I'd love to know if they actually do run that hot!

Thanks for the replys guys,

Does anyone know the recomended max temp for this CPU, I guess it would be safer and built for higher temps than the dual cores?

Also got me thinking, you'd never realy hit the max temp with this CPU other than stress testing. How often are all 4 core's going to be at 100% .

This CPU could probably run the latest games praticaly being idle?

Temps:
Idle 38
Load 49

But as soon as I up the juice, the temps jump

Wow you kiddin' me mate? Those temps are ace!

What rad do you have? and are you cooling a Gfx card aswell as the CPU?
