    Gasp!

    Less than optimum for heat transfer?

    Mabey the stock TIM will make up for it some?

    Sorry, it's easy to make jokes on this side of the fence...

    I do still believe the stock cooling is fine for mild over-clocking....

    I do however think you can't have too much thermal play room either, and cool chips add to system stability.

    Aftermarket blocks, and a quality mount and TIM are going to do better here for sure.
