So, I recently bought a i7-6700k along with a H100i v2 and a Maximus VIII Hero. Obviously, I want to overclock my i7, so I downloaded Aida64 to check the stability of the overclock, first try 4.7ghz failed after 15 minutes, then I tried 4.6ghz, i had looked some topics and some people say that 6 hours is good to test stability. I left my PC running the test and after 7h30min it failed. I don`t know if that is considered stable or my PC should run the test forever if I want to be considered stable. I also saw some people saying that I should uncheck "stress FPU" before running the test or just check "stress CPU". The test that failed after 7h30min had everything checked other than GPU and local disks. One last thing, although the average temperatures were really good there were some spikes on specific cores to like, 87C and I found it a bit strange and I don`t really know why does it happen. I need someone with more experience to help, thanks everyone and sorry if my english isn`t that good, it`s not my primary language.
Att: I forgot to mention, the Vcore was 1.315 for the 4.6ghz test and 1.325 for 4.7ghz.
