hey all!

finally got a new motherboard.

my core temps via core temp 0.98.8 are 35-38 on #0 and 31-34 on the other 3

(Q6600 2.4ghz Core 2 Quad)

the motherboard is a T41 HD T-series by Biostar

when i ramp things up...bad company 2, heaven dx11 benchmark, etc.. the temps get to around 60-70 after about 20-40 minutes of play.


what's a good budget headsink, as i'm using a stock one?

what's a good non-budget heatsink?

will there be a substancial difference between the budget and nice upgrade?? by how many degrees if you could guess?



additional info: GTX 460 SE, 4 gigs corsair pc6400 ram. SB x-fi titanium. 10k raptor HDD. CASE: thermaltake V9

The Arctic cooling Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 fits on pretty much all sockets, is cheap and my CPU @ 4.2GHz has never gone above 43C at load. Will be a good upgrade from the stock cooler, comes with good TIM pre-applied
 
Im using a Scythe Katana 2,it came in a box with adapters for many diffrent cpus and i got it half price for $10, my cpu runs up to 34c at load and 30c idle.

They also now have a new model out.
