mike Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I am thinking of changing out a single core amd processor to a socket am2+ x4 quad processor. Will the fan and heatsink that's already there be sufficient for this processor upgrade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head Guru Posted August 26, 2011 Share Posted August 26, 2011 I would for sure go with a larger volume fan. We build a lot of servers here ae Data Center and one thing I can tell you the more cooling power you can throw at the processor the better! Go large or go home Mike! Just my two cents....

mike Posted August 27, 2011 Author Share Posted August 27, 2011 Thanks Bill. Can you advise on what the temp SHOULD be and the best program to monitor it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
