I ran OCCT for 30 minutes and got a stable report.
But today I put on my Arctic Freezer7 Pro cooler and had a BSOD whilst I was away from the PC, strange but when I first put it on the temps had dropped for the 4 cores using Everest 4.20 by 10°C each, but now they are nearly the same as with the stock HSF.
A bit puzzled by that, I have had good results with the Arctic before now, in fact I have them on my 3 systems and they are all overclocked.
I had a bit of difficulty getting the arctic fastening pins seated at first but I have checked and it is secure, just wondering whether I disturbed the MX2 stuff a bit when I took it off a couple of times during the fitting.
At the moment I have the following temps:
Motherboard 37 °C
CPU 37°C
CPU 1/Core1 47°
CPU1/ Core2 47°C
CPU1/ Core3 39°C
CPU1/ Core4 38°C
GPU 40°C
GPU Diode 48°C
GPU ambient 37°C
Maxtor HDD 28°C ( HDD cooler fitted).
Quite happy with the CPU Queen Everest Benchmark at 24,628 which is faster than the Maxiumus with the Extreme Q9650
