The CPU won't run as cool or silent as it could when you use a aftermarket cooling solution, but it should do. And if you want to overclock the CPU then you should consider a aftermarket cooling solution</P> Fri, 05 Nov 2010 08:50:02 GMT https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/Is-stock-fan-adequate-for-E6800-Wolfdale-3-33GHz-2MB-L2-Cache/m-p/411830#M17500 idata 2010-11-05T08:50:02Z https://community.intel.com/t5/Mobile-and-Desktop-Processors/Is-stock-fan-adequate-for-E6800-Wolfdale-3-33GHz-2MB-L2-Cache/m-p/411831#M17501 <P> Go Back to NewEgg and look at the Coursair , H-50 . H2O Cooler Real quite and better than any air cooler . $ 75.00.
