  2. Thank you for this awesome giveaway! My favourite item is the CPU cooler because I would love to upgrade to water cooling Nick
  3. How do I correctly do an aida64 stress test? I went tools > system stability test and didn't change any of the check boxes, when I press start in the bottom left my temps only hit ~60 so I feel like something's wrong. Unless those are my real load temps in which case that's awesome What do you think? Edit: Just played around with the settings and if I uncheck everything except "Stress FPU" then my temps do go up to 70. But that means I still have more room to move the voltage up right? Unless there's another setting I'm missing.
  4. I did set the 1.115 manually. Are there any other settings I can change or is VCore the only one that has a big effect on the high temp?
  5. I bought a Hyper 212 EVO and decided to overclock since I've finally moved on from the stock fan with my 4670k. I am now at 1.115V and 4.2GHz, and Prime95 "Small FFTs" gets my temps to about 85-90C. These temps seem high, so I don't think I can raise my voltage any more. Are there any other settings I can alter to lower the temperatures so I can raise the voltage? Or have I just hit the limit of my cooler? Should I try to push the clock speed higher or stick with 4.2? Thanks for any help!
