QX6700 + P5B, needs better cooling.
Got back into building systems after a few years and I have been having a lot of fun this last week with new QX6700 on my P5B Deluxe.
These are my current novice best benches but I cannot remain Orthos stable because at full load I run too hot= over 75-80c and shutdown.
I will upgrading PSU and building a cooling system but I am wondering if going for the water solution is worth it or just wait until I can afford phase change because it seems these Kentsfields run very hot on my P5B.

Main System:
Intel Kentsfield QX6700 @3.6ghz (400x9) │ Asus Commando │ Corsair Pc8500 MicronD9 │
Nvidia 8800 GTX │ Maxtor Atlas 15K U320 │ Silverstone Zeus 850W
IBM Model M Clicky
cooling:
D-tek FuZion │ Laing DDC w/ Petra's Tech Top │ MCR320 w/ 3 Yate Loon │ Ek Multi-option Res
