From what I gather getting a Wolfdale and not overclocking 20% is really a waste. Once, after running the system for ~ 2hrs, I switched off and removed the heatsink from the E8400, then carefully touched the CPU to check how much the processor had heated up. Nothing. At stock it can be cooled passively I guess.
Sure some people just dont want to mess with their computer, but from a technical standpoint it's safe.
