Here are the current result with the Scythe Ultra Kaze in push config, I guess temps are in acceptable range now.

Started Prime 5:

Temperature midway:

Few minutes later, @4.6GHz:

Stopped Prime95, back to 1.6GHz;

^^It's already at 4.6GHz (2nd screenshot)

I guess temps and volts @4.6GHz are similar to Cilraaz's
Is this a good overclock for i5 2500k? - Overclock.net - Overclocking.net

There's still a little bit room for further temp drop.

Your CPU load voltage is 1.376v and what's the vcore you have set in bios or you leave it on auto ??

Set cpu vcore to 1.355/1.366 under bios setting and monitor the temps again.

BTW, nice to see your temp issue has been fixed now ;-)

Hi all, i have a small query.. My Phenom ii 955 BE ran at 79 degrees for quite a while because i didnt know about the importance of temperature monitoring back then.. Is there any chance my CPU is damaged? If it is, can i rectify?

I've been reading about 62 degrees being the max temp allowable on a Phenom ii.. So i'm really worried!

Thanks guys.. Cheers

PS: Running on stock cooler at stock speed.. Now the temp problems are solved.. i just wanted to know if there is a chance that my CPU was damaged..

Run 5 runs of Intel Burn Test, then run prime 95 for some time, if it passes both, its ok, no need to worry.

According to the Thermaltake website, both the Jing and the Frio have LGA1155 support... Neither are available here.. If we're lucky to have generous people shuttling back and forth from the US, maybe we can give them a shopping list... :p
