Did You check the temps with aircooling? If so, compare the idle/load diff on air and water.

I had it overclocked to 3.8Ghz for a while but then i got a bluescreen on boot up...
so i set it back to stock. havn't had the time to go through and overclock it again...
Sorry I never ran my CPU air cooled.... and since it is folding all the time it is never idle... so i don't know idle temperatures.

Well i stand corrected...
does that mean the moon isn't made of cream cheeze either?
