ok i was able to check my temperature in the bios.. which I was able to access on the first boot but can't on any other boots. Secondly, I just took off the block and found that the cpu wasn't burnt or anything. Looks to be in good condition. As for the overclocking my hsf did fine when I o/c from 1.45 -->1.53ghz. Hmm... Additionally the initial cpu temp reading was 35C with water cooling.. Hmmm... :/
