    Hi Fezarella,

    I just recently bought a FX55, unfortunately not a san diego but still an uber cpu! Mine does seem to run a bit on the hot side but it is running in a shuttle which will cause slightly higher temps. The San diego will run cooler, you prolly can get some oc'ing out of it but tbh, I have not yet had the need to, its so dam fast!!!
    If your gonna run a fx55 and want to OC, make sure the rest of your setup falls inline or else water cooling wont make any difference.
