They tested something similar to cooler that you ordered ...

http://www.insidehw.com/Reviews/Cooling/Titan-Fenrir.html


and it performs very well according to their tests and compared to

http://www.thermalright.com/new_a_page/product_page/cpu/u120ex/product_cpu_cooler_u120ex.htm


and here it is compared to CoolerMaster V8

http://www.insidehw.com/Reviews/Cooling/Cooler-Master-V8/Page-2.html


so you can expect slightly higher temperatures compared to V8 (few degrees) for half the price of V8 ... nice.


and you can always polish it (again) to gain few more degrees if your CPU actually can go above 3.2-3.2GHz

I received my new cooler yesterday it's fantastic man, right now i'm at 3.25ghz at 1.40vcore and temps are amazing.. 37º idle and 48º load.. i've tried to hit 3.4ghz at 1.5v and temps seems to be ok because at idle i get 42º but windows loads and after a while it crashes.. maybe i've it the limit

Correct me if I'm wrong but that CPU default frequency is 2.4GHz?

Stable 3.25GHz is more then 1GHz of overclock and that is 41% of default frequency and it operates under
nice low temperatures.

W4RP don't get too cocky or you will end up with fried CPU although you could try with slightly higher voltage 1.55V but monitor temperature closely.

yes, default clock it's 2.4ghz i'm getting 850mhz plus wich is 35,5% more i will stop overclocking right here by now, yesterday i made a good deal with a phenom II 940 Black that arrives next week..
But one thing i can assure, this cpu was a great great deal for the price.

With the new cpu new post's are in the way

W4RP don't get too cocky :) or you will end up with fried CPU :) although you could try with slightly higher voltage 1.55V but monitor temperature closely.
