My system is running Win10 and I was wondering if there was a CPU stress test out that supports Win10. prime95 does not have a Win10 download right now that i know off (which is what i used a while back) so I was wondering if there were any others (please link!).

I wanted to overclock my 4690k with my new liquid cooler to above 4.5ghz

Thx a bunch

Aida64 is all you need -the free trial version is plenty. There are TONS of benchmarks, temp sensors, stabilty/burn-in tests, and options.

Prime 95 has a known issue with 4/5th gen Intel chips - It works with the CPUs instruction sets differently now and represents unrealistic temps/results...Prime95 is losing its position as "the holy grail of stress-testing"..

I have my i7-5820k OC @ 4.4GHz on AIR..! :) Runs max 60C under HEAVY Physx/benchmark loads.

Aida64 and CPU-Z just to double check the numbers.
Remember -watch your temps!

Happy Overclockin'!!

No problem! I am glad to help! My goal is to one day be a technical writer (among other things) for a PC mag or something.. So I am always happy to help and am on here at least once a night!
