I just overclocked my i7 920 D0 from 2.66 Ghz to 3.4 Ghz, it was my first overclock.
I got idle temps 43C-48C, and full load with prime95 large fft test 72C Max, I left prime95 all the night.
Well my PC stats are :
Mobo: Gigabyte EX58 UD3R
Cooler: Cooler master V8
Power: Cooler master 550W
I barely use 20% of my PC and i leave it idle alot.
Question :
If i NEVER turn off my PC, only once a week for 6 hrs and im only using 5%-20% of my processor (43C-53C temp), will it last for atleast 3 years?
Is there any risk that it'll burn cause i never turn it off?
My temps are good for my cooler?
If i use Gigabyte's energy saver when im sleeping or at school will it mess my processor or my overclock?
My towns temp is 25C atm i dont know about my room's temp, it'll raise to 36C in January is there any risk for my processor?
Which voltage lower my temp?
Will i have problems if i leave Memory multiplier and QPI link in auto?
Thx everyone for all the help this forum is great 😀
Heres my PC stat with CPU-Z and CoreTemp:
