July 26, 201213 yr Can I get by with the stock fan on a Core i5 3570k if I do NOT overclock running FSX without damaging the chip? If not, what's the cheapest route to take as a stop gap measure? Old computer is giving way, but I can't afford to go all out on a new machine yet. Plan is to get a new mobo and CPU now and upgrade the rest as I am able, including a proper cooling system before overclocking. Steve Perry PMDG Beta Team
