Hello all,
I have a modest OC of 4.5ghz on my 4790K and the voltage set to 1.221v. The ram is also OC'd to 2400mhz (because it's PC2400 ram). I also have a Corsair H100i cooler in a push/pull configuration with SP120 corsair fans.
I just started doing an overnight prime95 test to see how the temps are, but I think I might stop it before I go to bed. I'm getting an average in the 80s for all cores using Core Temp...that seems pretty high for the "easier" Prime95 26.6 version. It's the small FFT test...but I was hoping for 70s or lower.
Any ideas? Is my cooler not working right? I have a brand new Corsair 760T case with plenty of fans so airflow can't be the issue. I'm kind of stumped because x264 tests were giving me mid 70s the whole way through, so prime is starting to scare me a bit.
Tomorrow I can attempt to re-seat the cooler in hopes that I just didn't have the right amount of paste or something, but this does appear high...
Any suggestions appreciated.
