Will Buying Cooler Increase Over clocking Capacity!

[Lakshya_Raw]

So I have a very old CPU ( Core 2 Duo E7500 ) so i overclocked it to 3.85Ghz. But if I do more than that my windows crashes. So if I buy a Cooler Master hyper 212 Cooler will I be able to do more overcloking Maybe to 4Ghz. Thanks in advance

Most of the aftermarket coolers are better than the stock coolers.

If you accomplished the 3.85ghz clock on a stock air cooler then the answer is yes!

I overclocked my Q9550 to 4ghz with a CMH 212+ running 2 fans in push/pull.

depends on your temps. you may make it stable by increasing voltage, but you will increase temps, so yes a new cooler will allow you to use higher voltage without getting too high temps, which may make it more stable, which may allow you to increase your OC. HOWEVER read the oc guides for core 2 duo, they have a problem whereby between two FSB frequencies they are unstable but above they can be stable, it's called the wall, and you may find that an fsb of 380 is unstable but 400+ is stable. A guy on here called wuzy was very knowledgeable along with others, he's not around anymore, but his articles should be.

So If I buy Cooler master hyper 212 evo I will be able to overclock more than 3.85Ghz Right?

Assuming you aren't using too high of a voltage already, then yes, you probably will.

I have't set voltage it is at auto.Then what??

 

[ihog]

Then, yes, you will be able to overclock more.
