E2140 Overclocking Help :)

**oscaryu1** · 12-13-2007, 02:14 AM

Soo, is there REALLY a FSB wall with this? I've got the stock paste on the bottom of my Rosewill cooler. Not cheap white, but AS5 color. Is that good?

Fan spins at 2.5k RPM and can cool a Q6600 in the high 20's. So the E2140 should do great, correct? There is 2 intake fans and one exhaust. All 80mm. There is a GFX HD3850 fan circulating some air and a PCI expansion 70mm fan blowing in at high (around 20CFM). Feels like a great breeze in there. PSU has 2 fans too, blowing great!

Should overclock great, correct?

It should...depends what you mean "great." I'd say great would be in the 2.8 range.

Ok thanks! Right now it idles with EasyTune5 and Downloading the ATI drivers @ 27C from the EasyTune monitor. What would you do Jet? Easytune overclock or CMOS overclock?
