Thinking about a Toledo X2

I was originally going to check out the Venice 3200+, but then got to thinking about a Toledo core X2 3800+ from Tank Guys. How difficult is it to overclock one of these and do I need special heatsinks and fans? The Toledo core is tempting because I guess people are getting good OCs but I don't want to do special cooling. Thanks!
 
no special cooling needed .. if you up the voltage on one of those bad boys, then you will just be looking at a decent heatsink and fan upgrade .. not expensive at all 😉

no, but if you intend to overclock the processor, you will find that you might be impeded by the high rise in temperature, you can monitor this through software, and if the temps do exceed 60 under full load then you might want to think about upgrading your cooling solution .. i would just say purchase the chip now, and then OC it .. if the temps become to high then just improve you cooling solution ..
