Hi there,
CPU: i7 4790k
MOBO: Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD5H-BK
Cooler: Hyper 212X ( will be replaced with the Noctua NH-D15 in 2 days )
I'm relatively new so this so please bear with me.
I set the BIOS to optimised default settings and noticed the gigabyte board was boosting to 4.4 on all cores at 1.267 volts. I ran OCCT v6.1.1 linpack test at this stock settings and the screen would go black then PC would restart. This happens about 4 seconds into the test. Aida64, intel burn test, cinebench ran well but was getting quite hot, around 83c in about 10 minutes.
So I manually lock the clock at 4.4 and voltage at 1.2 then ran intel burn test, Aida64, cinebench and OCCT but not linpack, just large data sets, auto thread count and auto instruction set. I stopped the tests in about 10 mins as I was still getting temperatures of 83c in about 10 minutes even at the lower voltage.
I'm guessing my cooler is being overwhelmed so I've ordered the Noctua NH-D15
I am however still confused as to why I'm getting black screen with stock values. I'm concerned something else might be going on and my new cooler wouldn't fix it
Note: package temp at idle is between 22c and 42c
