CPU temp:
No stress: 20C

working: antivirus, antispyware scan, playing music video at same time for 20 minutes gives me 80% usage on both core and both temp at 27C

stress: using prime95 with small FFT setting (maximum FPU stress, data fits in L2 cache, ram not tested much) for 30min give me 100% cpu usage and 30-32C at the end of the run.

I hope that is all of the info you will need to help me with my OC, any help and advice is appreciated! Thanks!
