Overclocking

I admit it. I'm an overclocking newbie. That's just the way it is. However, I am proud of myself. I managed to get my system running stable at 3.57 Ghz while just changing the base clock frequency. I'd say the cooler does a good job. It keeps everything at or under 60 degrees celcius while maxed out in Prime95. Overall, I'm going to wrap up the review in the last post by saying this product is good and I would recommend it. I would recommend it over my old Zalmann cooler because it's quieter and performs better for just about 20 dollars more. Which isn't a huge price difference. The only major caveat is that if you don't put it in when you first build your PC then you have to remove your motherboard to install it. That is of course unless you don't have a way of accessing the spot behind the CPU socket on your motherboard. I like it and I recommend it, enough said.
