Yesterday I replaced my CoolerMaster V10 with a Domino A.L.C. and modified my air duct which contains 2 - 120 mm fans which blows towards my graphics cards to put some cool air on them and blow the heat out the back. Here are my idle temps: What I am wanting to know is how much more performance can I gain by overclocking and will I see a drastic rise in temps. Also I need to give the CPU cooler sometime to get broken in for the true temps to show. System Specs: Intel Core i7-920 Bloomfield 2.66GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1366 ASUS Rampage II Extreme LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard Patriot Extreme Performance Gaming Series 6GB (3 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1333 (PC3 10666) !2 GB total BFG NVIDIA GeForce GTS 250 1GB PCIe 2.0 (D) n Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
