I am having AMD Phenom II x4 970 BE and I had bought the same after checking out the low price and overclocking potential, I have been facing overheating issues after overclocking, in my case I am having stock heatsink and is running at factory settings, I have found that the CPU's idle temp stays near 40 C but then when I run the Prime 95 then the temp reaches 55 C quickly and more. I have overclocked it at 4ghz with FSB stock, RAM stock, NB at 2200, vcore at 1.45. I have tried using the some Arctic Silver 5 but then it is not making any difference and the Prime 95 makes the temperature jump to 60 C in no time, is there anything that I can do about the same.
