I might as well move this to the appropriate section now...

370 x 9 Q6600 = 3.3ghz
1.44Vcore
Cpu 27c idle, 40c load
Chipset 47c ( im guessing this is due to a high FSB? ive never had my chipset get this hot in any PC i've had)

Memory divider 1:1
740mhz (800mhz supertalent 2GB dualchannel kit)
5-5-5-13 (didnt attempt tightening timings yet)

9800 GTX
800/1995/1254

3DMark06 Scores;
6655 SM2.0
6697 SM3.0/HDR
5128 CPU Score

I don't know if i can go much higher with the CPU, but I'm gonna see if i can make it stable at a lower voltage, I can't have the chipset @ 46C..

Ah nice.. and does it make sense that scratchy sound really sounds like its the processor ? o.O I put my ear up to my HD (disconnected the other 2) and i dont hear it coming from there..

Hmm that is weird for sure!Not sure but I can't see it being your cpu. Has to be one of the drives.

Why not? If you're worrid about it being high, 46C for a chipset is not bad at all.

Oh it isn't ? i thought it was.. whats a "bad" temp? so i know like a good threshold.. its just right now my cpu is idling at 27, my chipset is 46c.. on load the chipset goes up a few degrees and the cpu hits around 35-37... depending if the heats on in my bedroom.
