Folding@eGO team, round 2! (If you don't know what folding is, please read)

Below 70C is more than perfectly safe for 24/7 use. But yeah, a high end cooler is a good investment.
Yep, and I just found out that my CPU blows too much hot air on to my North Bridge when I game now. Just bought a Noctua NH-D14, hopefully it will help. (Not looking forward to taking apart my entire system that I built two weeks ago just to put the backplate on...)

It will help bundles. That's why I will never again buy a case without a hole on the back of the motherboard try for access to CPU cooler back plates.

Oh, mine has a hole for a back plate, my motherboard just has the holes about 5mm too far down for it too work.
 
When campus turns on heat I have to remember to open my window or I overheat and nights go unfolded

my computer is in a corner to heat accumulates, unfortunate story of dorm life.
 
I'm in now

Got it up on my main box, trying to figure out some errors I'm getting on my linux box
 
Has anyone else had problems with VMware and i7? I hit Sending discover... and it stops, not using any CPU power :-(

i even deleted all the files and started from scratch, and it always gets to sending discover, then times out

I used the same setup that FreakingHell sent to you, no problems, except for CPU heat, but I just fixed that. Bought myself a NH-D14, brought my 100% load temps from 65C to 42C!

How's your internet/network set-up?
 
connected directly to the cable modem. every once in a while i go from modem -> router -> lan, but that's just occasionally
