Could I overclock my e2140 to 3.2 with the stock cooling?

[CatchPhrase]

I know I would need to up the voltage to about 1.45.
When I first put the heatsink on I touched the preapplied grease with my finger a few times (1st build cmon and it did not look like grease either). If I was to buy some new grease and apply it properly along with lapping the heatsink a little, could I just keep the stock hsf?
How much more electricity would it use also?
I have 800mhz g.skill ram running at 667 (seems stupid to keep it slow).
This chip is 1.6 at stock, so if I double the speed then would it burn out faster?
I plan on upgrading to the 45nm quads in maybe 2 years, will it last me until then?
I heard above 80c is dangerous so If it gets near there then I'll slow it down.
Thanks in advance.

If you lap both the heatsink and CPU...and use arctic silver 5 (a paper-thin layer)...and have good airflow inside your case (most important)...

I'd say...maybe

The answer is: "Do you feel lucky, punk?"

If that's 50C tjunction and not tcase at load you're probably good to go -- looks like you've got great airflow in your case. If not, most likely no go.

this is whatever coretemp says.
Edit: I changed the settings in core temp now it says:

63C to tjunction max remaining for both cores (right now I am at idle on the internet).

 

[emblem]

which version of coretemp?

 

[CatchPhrase]

0.96.1
It says: revision M0

Tj. max 85C
core#0 21C C0 state
core#1 20C C0 state

Right now I'm at 2.66ghz

 

[emblem]

The reason I ask is because supposedly coretemp .96.1 is off and .96 is the one to use.

I'm lost about the whole thing myself.

Why don't you just try If it starts throttling then your sol I don't think it will hold up to well though, probably will have to invest in a arctic freezer 7 pro. What ambient temps btw ?

 

[CatchPhrase]

In my house it is about 66F (thermostat)

Why don't you just get a decent cooler like Xigmatek HDT-S963 92mm - with shipping and after rebate, it's $21

WHOA\!!!

xigmatek makes a hdt-s1283 that beats the TRUE and TRU!. It's not the 963 model that russian is talking about, (thats the 92mm model) i think its the 120mm model that they used to compare to the TRUE. WOW. the ultra 120 has lost its crown to the xigmatek.
