I have never actully known anyone with those CPU coolers. The Thermalright works with or without a fan, but most people slip a 120mm one on there to maximize cooling capabilities.

The load temps only get to 60C when my Q6600 is at 4Ghz... So yeah a bit new for me.

Is my CPU at a danger level at those temps? Since maxing out a Q6600 at 100% constant for about 45 minutes is unrealistic in normal computing. Mostly it'll be running downclocked to whatever stepspeed puts it to.

No, I would consider it to be dangerous when it crosses the 70-75C mark.

When the processor temp passes the threshold of 70-70C, isn't the computer supposed to automatically shutdown? If not is there a setting in the BIOS that would allow me to control that? I know my old Mach Speed + Celeron D 340 mobo/processor combo had that option.
