Core i7/X58 Overclocking Thread

I'm happy with the result, but a little worry about the temps at idle..44 degrees :S at around 70 something degree on load..

your temps are fine, these things can run up to 100ºc. Just try to stay under 90ºc. Glad the settings worked out

Getting better I see room temps matter A LOT. One extra fan dropped me to about 75-77C. At night I have the AC set to 76F and here is what a small drop in room temperature got me (note it was mostly 72-73 on core1).

yes they do a lot. Also I switched my fans from pull to push and my temps dropped to down like 4-5ºc across all cores. Maybe you wanna expirement???
