Not sure that's a good idea to do on a stock cooler. Get yourself something a little more beefy.

As PM i can prolly help you out and 3.5Ghz is soo mild it should be possible on stock volts so cooler should handle it.

Have you got this set up yet?

Yea that cooler looks perfect for only £30. Will allow a 4Ghz OC.
