I am over clocking for the first time on my new system:
E6400
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3
1GB Corsair Ram
Thus far I have gotten an overclock of 350mhz. Now my Ram should be able to go higher as should the CPU - however when running dual instances of Prome 95 my northbridge reaches a toasty 62C. My CPU is a cool 42C and my HDD a fridgid 32C. My case is a NZXT with 3 120mm fans. The front and side fans are intake with the rear being exhaust
Is 62C too hot for a northbridge?
If so, what can I do to cool it down? (Currently I have just the stock Intel HSF)
Thanks guys!
