Zalman 9700 good enough to oc my e6600?
MRam is corsair dominator CL4 2x1gb.
I searched alot for aswers to my doubt but where some say it does , other say it doesn't!Every single time i get into buying a custom made machine all i can get is doubts over and over again because people just say what they "think" and most times based on other people experience.
Also , and since your at it , what cpu cooler could prove better than zalman's?
To what extent may i oc this cpu with this specs?

Trust me, stay away from the Zalman 9700. Its by far the worst cooler made by Zalman. Good thing is it's silent and light in weight, but the cooling performance is only about average. I get around 60-80*C(core temp) LOAD with my E6600 clocked at 3.78GHz. Yes it will get ure CPU far, but it will run hot, real hot.
oops sorry, i was talking about the 9500... lol
