Had my X2 4400 running for a few days now; haven't really done the whole "cycling" thing to let the TIM break in...it's been running the whole time.
I have the stock HSF and after three hours of P95TT, max heat (2 instances) my CPU temp is 64C. Case temp is 44C. The thing idles at 52C.
I would assume this is normal due to there being two cores under there? The stock HSF is a pretty substantial looking heatpipe affair w/a copper base. Quiet, 2500-rpm fan, though.
Is there better cooling out there that isn't like XP120-sized?
