Here's the deal, checked with coretemp and my 3ghz Q6600 (1.325vid) is idling at temps ranging from low to high 40s depending on the core (being cooled by a Freezer 7) with ambient temps at around 32-34°C. Just yesterday I replaced the thermal paste with the noctua nt-h1 in the hopes of reducing the temps but there's little difference. Now, I'm wondering if the Freezer 7 can't handle cooling the Q6600 anymore. Btw, I have 5 case fans, 3 intake and 2 exhaust in my Antec 300 so air flow isn't much of a problem. Should I just spend to replace the aging Freezer 7 or should I be expecting these temps considering my ambient temps are quite high since I live in a tropical country? Thanks!
