Hello!
I upgraded my Mac Pro 5.1 (which is actually a firmware-upgraded 4.1) with 2x Intel Xeon X5690.
The processors are now getting quite hot when I do cpu intensive tasks (85-100 depending on how long the run), and I'm wondering exactly what I can do to prevent this.
Can I lower the voltage? How? I have only seen MacBook Pro "voltage apps" so far.
Can I replace the cooling? Are there water cooling solutions available? What socket should the cooler support?
