Fun with Phenom X3 720: Undervolting

Cut to the chase:


8hr OCCT + prime95 stable, 3DMark06 stable (two runs)

Temperatures are taken at ~12PM, no air-con.


Idle temperatures - top Core is CPU temp, bottom Core is 8600GT with a Zalman VF700-Al - not as cooling as I thought it was.

Load:


Temperatures after an hour of OCCT's LINPACK.

Hot? What hot?

The fan is pretty noisy though at >4000rpm even after undervolting.
