does the fan/ heat sink that comes with it work good with overclocking and temptures and etc

It was quite apparent to me after using this processor for 2 weeks that the only real way to use it in any capacity was with a water cooling system. I was not willing to invest in that at this time so I went back to my I-7 Bloomberg which cools well out of the box. Good luck with this processor. If you can get past the noise, I found it to work OK when I took the side panel off of my tower to give it more air flow.

I'm running 4.433 on stock right now. Temps can get warm but not detrimental if you turn up the cpu fan speed. Completely stable as well.

It is adequate. I personally would NOT use it for overclocking. These FX 81xx series chips are awesome but THEY RUN HOT. I got a little freaked out because I am not used to the operating temperatures of these chips. I opted for a Thermaltake Cooler dual fan Full ATX case Heatsink until I get a water cooler. Once I did the research and understood that these chips run hot I feel relief but still would like to get a water cooler before serious OC'ing. Hope that helps.

Yes your cooler should still work. Since you already have the cooler you should have no problems overclocking the CPU as it is a black edition.

Yes it comes with a heatsink and cooling fan attached. We are gamers and we have had no issues with overheating with the stock (with that said we have not Over Clocked our machines). Games it plays: Skyrim (with high graphics), Dirt 3, Starforge, Lost Planet 3, Half Life 2 seriees, etc.

If I understand your question correctly: That would generally come with the processor, not the motherboard, but LGA2011 series processors do NOT come with heatsink/fan assemblies.

Yes. It comes with a Cooler Master heat sink / fan combo that has a few heat pipes and thermal compound pre-applied. With the stock heat sink my CPU temp (at 4.2 GHz) at idle is only 34 C and so far has only gotten up to 45 C when gaming.

Yes, the fan is pre-attached to the heat-sink and includes pre-applied thermal paste. However, I would recommend an aftermarket cooler for over clocking.

It does very well. The increased air flow over the cpu is significant. It should work well unless you are going to really, really overclock.

It comes with the fans. Depending on your CPU heatsink fan you may want to remove the case fan that sits diagonally under it as it makes for a tight fit.

Yeah, but an after market heatsink is recommended. I bought the Cooler Master Seidon 120v for it.

This kit came with a little heat sink. I overclocked it and the heat sink barely even warms up I don't think a fan would be a great investment for this setup. Not to mention you wouldn't be able to close the case being it is very tight as is.

Yes it does come with pre-applied thermal paste on the sink with fan included. you can always clean it off and use your own thermal paste but why? the cooling is sufficient. under heavy load when i play games, it never goes over 60C. just make sure your case has good cooling and/or airflow. it may get hotter if u do things such as 3d editing and etc in which others have noted so watch out for that. just use HWMonitor to monitor your temps. it's a free software.

Hello!Yes,it includes the CPU cooler that is rather noisy under heavy load without overclocking. I bought a SilenX cooler 80mm Fan to avoid the nosie. As and advice,if I were going to buy some computer processor right now , I would rather to buy a Fx-8320 that includes a Water cooling system and that has a cost of 170 USD and whose socket is AM3+.Its a little bit more expensive but believe me, you will thank me for that.Its up to yours. Have a nice day!Also consider that AMD is about to release in june-july 2013 their new CPUS which has less energy consumption, and generate less heat, so waiting just a month could be a wise action.

It works well with mine. I am using a AMD Quad Core CPU and it works quite well!

yes this does come with a heatsink and fan. Also, since this processor is a 54 watt processor the stock heatsink and fan are more than adequate for it.

Should be okay if you don't overclock it or your cpu. It's running fine on my cheap 700watt cooler master extreme

Yes, it comes and it works pretty good. I mounted it on a HTPC with a i5-2500k and the temps are very good (under 70 c with 4.5 ghz overclocking)

The case comes with a power supply which has a fan and a small case fan on the side/top of the unit. There are no places to install additional fans. One nice thing though is that the CPU fan has a vent directly above it. So in a way the CPU fan acts as a case fan because the case is so small and the side vent is so close to the CPU. I'm running an A10-5800K APU and I haven't had overheating issues. I did have overheating issues when I attempted to overclock it. It's not exactly an overclocking case. You're most likely going to be fine with up to 100W TDP CPU or APU in this case. I highly recommend looking into AMDs line of APUs. With an APU in this thing you can make a mighty fine SteamBox. One thing worth mentioning is that this case is TIGHT! My CD drive is touching my ram. There is no extra clearance. If you get ram that has huge cooling fins you may have a bad day depending on the layout of your motherboard.
