Hello,
My CPU is overclocked to 4.4GHz running with 1.248v Vcore. This overclock was done during winter.
My room temp has increased to around 29-31c due to the ongoing heatwave that has hit the UK. There's no AC in my home to correct this issue, so I just have to deal with it.
However, now that my room temp has gone up by a large amount, my CPU has also gone up quite significantly. OCCT now fails within minutes whereas it was previously stable during several 15min tests. Temps hit around 93c during an OCCT large data set test. A quick Cinebench run reported a max temp of 87c. Rendering a 3:41 video using Camtasia 9 saw temps reach a max of 87c as well (running for about a minute)
I know room temp affects CPU temps, but should I be worried? When I originally tested my OC, temps sat around a comfortable 73c-ish during stressing.
My CPU cooler is the Cryorig M9i and my case is the NZXT S340 running with the 2 factory exhaust fans (top and rear) and 2 intake (2x Arctic F12). I currently have the CPU cooler at max speed given the increase in room temp.
During normal use, I don't get worrying temps. It's just when my CPU nears max load I have to worry about hitting past the 80s.
Should I be concerned or are these temps normal considering the cooler I have and my current room temp (29c)?
