I have dug around the internet and searched the forums here...but
I just got a coolit eliminator I plan to use on my q9450 to oc the bejeesus out of it..but got to thinking - would it be good for my I7 ? currently @3.8ghz with Scythe Ninja 2 43 idle 70 intel burn in stress...passes fine.
I read where tecs can have issues with heat output over a certain wattage?? I looked on coolit's page and they now sell a freezone for i7..but other than the i7 mounting it looks amazingly like the eliminator (spec wise). I have a p6 mobo so it has 775 mounting holes....
what do you think? try it? stick to Q9450 or take it back and fugeddabouit.
