7600k safe temps ?

[jacob_174]

Hello, so i just built my new computer and im getting pretty high temps i believe .. Im getting 30-50 idle and under prime 95 it got to 86c.. I stopped the stress test as soon as it got to 86c because it straight up scarred me lol. My cooler is the 212 evo and everything is stock.. Any ideas ?

That is pretty hot during load you should shoot for around 75 or less i woudl sudjest more case fans or better cpu cooler

How are you overclocking (manual or easymode)? What Vcore are you running? Many Kaby Lake motherboards had a bios issue where the auto selected Vcore was too high. Check for bios updates or manually set Vcore. Just some things to think about.

jacob_174,

Q: What is your ambient temperature?
Q: Which version of Prime95?
Q: Is AVX Offset enabled in BIOS?

Do NOT run any versions of Prime95 later than 26.6. Here's why:

Core i 2nd through 7th Generation CPU's have AVX (Advanced Vector Extension) instruction sets. Recent versions of Prime95, such as 28.9, run AVX code on the CPU's Floating Point Unit (FPU) math coprocessor, which produces unrealistically high temperatures. The FPU test in the utility AIDA64 shows similar results.

Prime95 v26.6 produces temperatures on 3rd through 7th Generation processors more consistent with 2nd Generation, which also have AVX instructions, but do not suffer from thermal extremes due to having a soldered Integrated Heat Spreader and a significantly larger Die.

Please download Prime95 version 26.6 - http://www.mersenneforum.org/showthread.php?t=15504

Run only Small FFT’s for 10 minutes.

Use Core Temp to measure your temperatures - http://www.alcpu.com/CoreTemp

Your Core temperatures will test 10 to 20°C lower with v26.6 than with v28.9.

Here's the recommended operating range for Core temperature:

80°C Hot (100% Load)
75°C Warm
70°C Warm (Heavy Load)
60°C Norm
50°C Norm (Medium Load)
40°C Norm
30°C Cool (Idle)
25°C Cool

Core temperatures up to 80°C are safe.

I had the exact same problem with the same processor and cpu fan, ended up being the fan blowing to the inside of the chassis as soon as I put it on the other side of the radiator, problem got solved and max temp under prime95 is now 70c
