Nope

:shadedshu That overclock is so-so... People with the 3700+ sometimes go up to almost 3Ghz on air cooling.

thats a pretty sick setup you got there. Try just screwin with your bios crap and just keep try and push it further. If you really got that o.c'd alot then you should better get some good cooling system goin on.

What are some opinions of highest safest temps for a 4200+ dual core?

My 4200+ runs at 41C idle and 63C max load when running double Prime95. DoomGuar, get rid of the stock cooling and buy something ZALMAN or AC.

i got my 3700 at 2.8 ( 255 * 11 ) on ZALMAN 9500
its also at stock vcore, so im pretty sure you could push it up,
by the way, my ram (kingston value) was downclocked to DDR333 and pushed back up to 200MHz with the cpu overclock.
it isnt stable at higher, i think its because of my POS ram that cannot go higher than 210ish, and also running shitty timings, well :)

My 4200+ idle is 41C and at full gaming load its usually no more than 45C. Even with CPU Burn in test, it never got over 45C.
