Max Temp for E6700?

[ironviper]

Hey guys I overclocked my cpu E6700 to 3.0ghz at 1.275v and have been running the Prime95 torture test for a while, the tempts of the cores are about 66/65 respectively. What is the max temp I should stop it at?

About that....

I take it you're using the stock cooler that came with it?

Yes I am for now but I ordered arctic silver 5 and arctic cooler pro 7 just waiting for it to arrive, but I still want to know what my boundaries are.

Thanks.

I'd say start worrying when you hit 70°C

According to that you shouldn't go over 60.
