Hi there,
I have a few concerns and questions:
I'm currently doing a stress test in AIDA64 on my i5-4690k to find a stable 4.3GHz Overclock on all cores.
Nothing seems to be too out of the ordinary apart from the fact that I've noticed the package temperatures are spiking up in relation to Core #1's temperature.
Cores #2,#3 and #4 are running at around 60-70, while Core #1 is running at around 70-80.c peaking to almost 90.c every few seconds.
I should add that I re-mounted my CPU Cooler (be quiet! Dark Rock Pro 3) yesterday and re-applied some MX-2 thermal paste as I had done a bad job at both before. I don't remember if this was happening before I remounted the cooler or not, I never really realised it until now.
I'm just a bit curious as to why this is happening, if it's normal, if this is where my thermal headroom ends and/or if it is something that can be 'fixed'.
Also wondering as to why temperatures in AIDA64 spike up every 4-5 seconds.
Also, I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to overclocking - how long should I run this stress test to know if I've reached a stable Overclock? 15 Minutes? An Hour? 4 Hours??
Specs if needed:
CPU - i5-4690k
RAM - 24GB DDR3 HyperX Fury 1600MHz
GPU - GIGABYTE G1 GTX 1060 6GB rev.2
Mobo - ASRock Z97 Anniversary
PSU - Rosewill Capstone 1000w 'Gaming' (80 Plus Gold)
Any help is appreciated.
Cheers.
