My cpu temps goes from about 30 degrees celsius to about 60 within 1-3 seconds after starting prime95 stress test. My cou is a i5 6600k with a corsiar h100i v2. Is this a problem? -
I am in need of a good stresstest program and for as long as i can remember i heard prime 95 have some problems whit their latest realeses. so i wonder if there are any other good programs or a stable version of prime 95?

Hi , I am in my first OC adventure. I'm trying to OC my FX 8350 but i have some issues: With a low OC of 4'3 1,38v (all coolnquiet disabled and all that stuff) running prime95 crash in less than a minute, but when I run Aida64 stresstest with all checked (except GPU and HD) it handle it so well. The problem is not the temps i checked them and didn't raise greater than 53-56 when crash. But in Aida64 all is "stable" and that make me confuse.

I was having really bad heat isses with my 8700k, so yesterday I delidded my 8700k. it's on a custom loop reaching temps around 75c to 80 c at 5 ghz. Prime 95 is causing a crash, or the cpu starts running at 80% no matter the voltage. This normally happens within the first 3 minutes. I have gone in and disabled avx in prime 95 and it can run at 5 ghz at 70c all day long. Any idea what's going on? At 5 ghz I'm hitting around 1.42 volts. But it does the same at 4.9 ghz at 1.37 volts -
Hey, I started undervolting the 6700HQ in my MSI gs63vr. Using XTU Ive got it down to -.200 while doing a 5 min stress test between voltage drops. When I test with XTU I get a CPU temps around 72C. But when I test with Prime95 it sits around 90C to95C. Is it normal for Prime95 to be so much higher? Ive never done any under or overvolting before so I have no idea. So far Im only 30 mins into the Prime95 test, my intention is to run it over night. Thanks

Hey folks, I've been browsing the internet for days now and I am afraid my CPU may has gone bad. I recently had Overclocked my i7 6800K to 4,1GHz on 1,27VCore, all fine and max temp in prime95 was 85C'ish (on air), then I wanted to test stability and used blend test but it failed after 2-3 minutes with a rounding error, so I decided to downclock but the problem persisted, I thought it may be the ram so I loaded Optimized Defaults and tried again, it still kept failing and ALWAYS on the same two cores and now instantly when the test starts, I tried only using one ram stick but for all four I got the same result. I then ran Intel Processor Diagnostic Tool which says it was all fine but blend and small fft kept failing the same two cores... I really don't know what to do because I remember testing with prime95 for max temps with that cooler and nothing failed, this was on stock too. One thought was that the oc settings applied by the mobo had fried the fpu in that two cores, I left everything on auto except of VCore and Cache Voltage because I overclocked that too but never went above 1,3V on VCore and never above 1.2'ish on cache. I also tried the overclock preset when starting to oc because I thought that would be safe but it bumped Core to 1,5V and it didn't even boot so I did it manually with fully manual mode enabled still everything on auto except VCore and Cache. Can it be that the fpu on that two cores went bad because of oc? With one stick it managed about a minute before the workers stopped but its always the same two, I will try different ram tommorow because I ordered some trident z rgb ram but small fft shouldn't fail because of ram or can it? I also tried prime95 on a ubuntu live usb stick but nothing changed. I would be really thankful for replies, greetings from germany ^^ System Specs: Motherboard: Asus Strix X99 Gaming BIOS 1801 CPU: i7 6800K RAM: Kingston HyperX Predator 3333Mhz PSU: be quiet! Dark Power Pro11 Prime95 newest version PS: Also tried Intel Processor Diagnostic Tools Burn In Test which lasts 120 minutes and it passed Math, Prime Number and Floating Point, shouldn't an Intel Tool be reliable? -
i want to start this by saying i am by NO means the smartest when it comes to computers and im learning as I go, so please any and all tips are greatly appreciated! I just built a new gaming rig: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/kFLJjc CPU: i7-8700k CPU Cooler: Hyper 212 evo MotherBoard: MSI - Z370 GAMING PLUS GPU: MSI GTX 1080 Case:Corsair - Carbide 400C while playing a few games i noticed my PC seemed to be running warm. I know enough to realize it should be monitored. Im not exactly sure how to properly monitor the temps (what programs to use) or how to fix them. I downloaded a program called "cam" and have been monitoring the temps there. iv seen my CPU hit 86 Degrees C playing PUBG.. My old PC never hit this temp before, so im a little nervous. any suggestions on what to do or what programs to use to stress test my PC to make sure its not just a fluke? Or what programs are better to use to monitor PC Temps? When I installed my CPU i made sure i put the correct amount of thermal paste and securely place my CPU cooler "hyper 212 evo". I also went and updated my BIOS to version "7B61v11" just incase that was the problem.

Hi all, I was just looking for some advice for overclocking, I just recently built my first overclockable machine. My CPU is a Ryzen 1600X on a MSI B350 Tomahawk motherboard with a H100i v2 AIO cooler. My system is built inside the NZXT H440 with one 140mm rear exhaust, two 120mm top exhausts, and three front mounted 120mm intake fans (bottom two are for radiator.) Last night was the first night that I ran Prime95 blend test overnight @4GHz/1.3V and when I woke up two workers failed right when I turned on my monitor. Did the workers actually fail earlier in the night and it only displayed it once I turned on my monitor? Or was that just coincidence or failure from moving my mouse after leaving it for like 8 hours? Also is Prime95 reliable for stress testing, if so is blend the best option? My peak temperatures are 75*C for CPU package in HWMonitor, and 82.5*C for VRMs. Are these good temps? It had already been running for like an hour before I went to bed and, at the time, the max temps were 70*C for VRM and 65*C for CPU package. I think I'm going to try to turn up the voltage to 1.325V. Absolutely any advice or help would be very appreciated. Thanks.

Hello, I made my first pc and so it's the first time for me overclocking, I read and watched many guides so I know the basics. Specs: -I7 8700K delidded -MSI Z370 Gaming pro Carbon -Corsair Vengeance LPX 3000Mhz CL15 -Schythe Fuma Rev. b -Bitfenix whisper M 650w -Silverstone RL 06 GP These are my overclock settings in bios with the latest update, if not here they are at default setting: -CPU Ratio: 51 (all cores) -CPU Ratio mode: Dynamic -CPU Ratio Offset When Running AVX: 0 -Enhanced Turbo: Enabled -XMP: Enabled -Memory Fast Boot: Disabled -CPU Loadline Calibration Control: Mode 5 -CPU Over Current Protection: 150% -CPU Core Voltage Mode: Adaptive -CPU Voltages control: 1.4V -Long Duration Power Limit (W): 4096 (max) -Short Duration Power Limit (W): 4096 (max) -FCLK Frequency: 1000Mhz WIndows power plan: Balanced I'm using HWinfo64 to monitor everything When I run RealBench all my cores clock at 5.1Ghz stable with 51x multiplier stable. Average CPU temp is 71C with max 75C, MOS 61C max 65C (consider my cpu and system fans are at around 75%). Vcore is at 1.400/1.408V. I don't have any type of throttle. Instead when I run Prime95 small FFT: CPU temps are the same, MOS is 83C (I could use a higher fan curve if it's too hot), core clocks are 4.8Ghz and Vcore is 1.288/1.296V These two HWinfo throttle indicators are on yes when I torture test with P95: -IA: Electrical Design Point/Other (ICCmax, PL4, SVID,DDR, RAPL) -RING: Max VR Voltage, ICCmax, PL4 (I didn't touch anything ring related, running at 4.4Ghz in auto) What do I have to change in bios to don't get this throttles? I don't know if it matters but my IO and SA voltages are set to auto and are 1.272V and 1.32V. I read somewhere that they are supposed to be lower. Thanks for the help!

Hey Guys, I could need some help in overclocking my AMD Phenom II X6 1100T. I know I should think about upgrading but at first I want to try pushing my CPU. I´m using a M5A78L/USB 3 from Asus with 12 GB of RAM. (Rest of my specs in profil) I already tried my best to overclock this CPU but it always gives me an error in stress testing it with Prime95. I hope you can help me. If you need any other specs just tell me

Just installed a hyper 212 evo and downloaded prime95 I noticed that it stays stable at 66c for about 3-4 minutes then jumps to 76-80 seemingly out of nowhere. The cpu stays pinned at 100% load at both temps. Does prime95 do harsher tests every couple of minutes? Im using the Blend test.

I just finished the following build: PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K 4.0GHz Quad-Core Processor ($344.99 @ SuperBiiz) CPU Cooler: Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO 82.9 CFM Sleeve Bearing CPU Cooler ($24.89 @ OutletPC) Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI ATX LGA1151 Motherboard ($118.88 @ OutletPC) Memory: Crucial Ballistix Sport 16GB (2 x 8GB) DDR4-2400 Memory ($68.99 @ B&H) Storage: Samsung 850 EVO-Series 250GB 2.5" Solid State Drive ($90.97 @ Amazon) Storage: Western Digital Caviar Blue 1TB 3.5" 7200RPM Internal Hard Drive ($47.49 @ OutletPC) Video Card: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1070 8GB G1 Gaming Video Card ($429.99 @ SuperBiiz) Case: Corsair 200R ATX Mid Tower Case ($69.99 @ NCIX US) Power Supply: EVGA SuperNOVA G2 650W 80+ Gold Certified Fully-Modular ATX Power Supply ($106.99 @ Amazon) Total: $1303.18 Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available Generated by PCPartPicker 2016-07-22 15:05 EDT-0400 I also had included a cheap, spare fan for push-pull with the Hyper 212 EVO. Also, in total, I have 2 intake 120mm fans, and 1 exhaust 120mm fan. All of these are connected directly to the motherboard. After building, I was a bit concerned about CPU temps at stock speed. I also haven't messed with anything other than boot order in the BIOS, so I'm also concerned there's some sort of automatic process going on there that may be contributing. This is all considering a 23°C ambient temp (measured with MSI Afterburner): Idle: 25-28°C Gaming Load (CS:GO, Elder Scrolls Online, Payday 2), 35-45°C 100% Load (Prime 95 "Blend") - Starts at around 50-55°C, but after about 5-7min it switches to another stress test and it jumps to 69-71°C, which I believe to be the same as the test included below. 100% Load (Prime 95 "Small FFTs") - 69-71°C I've run all of these over the course of 15+ mins, with the temps stable over that time. I'm particularly concerned with the "Small FFTs" test. Are these considered normal for my setup? Would it be worth checking/reapplying the thermal paste or something?

(Hey, if Luke is reading, I guess this would actually make an interesting video for The Workshop...) Well, what do you know, AIDA64 and Prime95 tacke the CPU rather differently. Not susprises at all. I was doing some overclocking one night and did run a few stress passes with Prime95 on my CPU. After that, I got to do some testing with AIDA64 (because it allowed me to do some stress testing of several things at once) and notticed how the temperatures were different between both programs. Prime95 hit my CPU considerably harder than AIDA64, like... Hard. I'm running an AMD FX-8120 dinosaur, at 4.25 GHz, idling at 45 C. Prime95 brought it to around 75 C. and, AIDA64, did "only" reach 68 C. As of now, I only tested those 2 programs. do you have any suggestions on other software that I could use to Stress my CPU? I also did a similar experiment to stress test my GTX 970. And, didn't really nottce much difference first. I wanted to generate as much heat as possible, and hit every transistor inside that poor chip. So, I fired up Furmark, alongside GPU-z stress test, as well as Valley, As well as several test at once from MSI afterburner and EVGA, and AIDA64, and even put Blender to render a complex surface with complex shaders. It was literally a mess. My GPU didn't really throttle, but all of the different workloads caused the GPU to output less heat (probably because some the many workloads were lighter, so the heavier ones would take less GPU clocks per second to be performed)

Hi, So I have a I7-6700K on a Asus maximus VIII Hero mobo and DDR4-3200 MHZ Corsair C16 RAM on a plat-grade Corsair AX-series PSU. I currently ran into a few problems overclocking. So I currently have my system running on 4.6 GHZ and it appears to be stable for everything I can test so far. My new GPU won't be in for another 2 weeks so I will not be able to test my computer full until then. I have the core voltage at 1.33 Volts, with 1.1 V VCCIO 1.1V for the system agent voltage and level 6 CPU-load line calibration. OCCT shows no hint at any problems. Aida64 agrees. I had them run for about 2 hours apiece. However, Prime 95 is seriously hating on my CPU. It's caused errors, BSOSing (probably 20 times in total from all my different attempts. Only OC I got it not to hate was down at 4.3 GHZ). I was wondering if this would be stable realistically? I heard skylake has some serious issues with Prime 95. Side note: should I clock down my CPU until I get my GPU? I really do not use any power on it atm. Not much you can do when you're running your old 560 in your rig lol. The temps at 100% load peak at like 76 degrees C or so and avg temp is like 60-65 degrees at 100% load. I really have it down at like 25 Degrees avg. since I don't use 100 percent load right now lol. If I should clock down in the meantime, any idea what the stock settings are for the CPU? I'm thinking it's probably automatically like 1.1 V core volt, 4.0 GHZ, everything else auto?

Hello forum got a bit of a problem with a hot cpu. While idle and gaming i have no issues and temps are fine. But when i try to benchmark the cpu (with prime 95) the temps instantly shoot at 100 degrees (Celsius) My cpu is the i7 6700K. I had it OC to 4.6 Ghz. I tried the benchmark at the standard 4 Ghz but the same problem occurs. My cpu cooler is the Coolermaster seidon 120 ver2. I looked up some videos of this cooler and average temps should be around 50-60 degrees with prime 95. My previous processor was the i5 4690K and also got very hot during prime 95 benchmarking. Idle temps are around 30 degrees. I am using real temp to monitor my cpu. I checked if the cooler is mounted right and i don't think that's the problem. The motherboard I use is the Asus Z170 pro gaming 16 GB of DDR4 RAM and im using the 980Ti

Specs: i5 4690k devils canyon Noctua NH-L9i ASRock M8 case Normally, I have my 4690k clocked to 4.0 GHz and never see temps over 75. But when I run Prime95 my temps shoot straight to 100 and the CPU starts throttling. Is there any way of restricting Prime95 to never use more than, say, a quarter of my CPUs power? Also, I upgraded my laptop to Windows 10 and have become extremely frustrated with the "Mac style" reverse scrolling that windows has adopted for whatever retarded reason. I have tried reversing it to the correct scroll direction within the settings but returns to the default whenever the laptop is put to sleep or shut down. I was wondering if there is anyway of reversing the scroll direction permanently so I don't have to stoop down to the level of mac users. -
Hello all I've spent a long while trying to get my chip stable at 4.5Ghz, but so far 4.4 seems to be the limit! I know this chip is capable, some people have even got it as far at 5! I'd really appreciate some help from experienced eyes. SPECS: 2x Intake 3x Exhaust CPU COOLER: Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev. 2 (Max load temp on IBT AVX is 58 @ 4.4) MOBO: MSI 970 Gaming Temps are fine, but I'm not that good at overclocking and need help with NB frequencies, voltages etc... I've attached some pics to make things easier (Pics contain voltages, frequencies etc...) Cheers!

Hello mates, I have an 4770k processor running on stock frequency and a AIO water-cooler (h110i GT). As soon as I start Prime95 the HWMonitor hits 100degrees. (Maximus VI Hero is the mobo) Before the h110i I had an Hyper 412S Evo which had the same problem with the temps as the h110i. I replaced the thermal paste several times with the pea technique. Now I am using the thermal paste the 412S came with and I am going to try an MX-4 one of the following days. Unfortunately the paste from h110i was messed up and I didn't test the cooler with it. Right now, I do not know what is the problem and I cannot seem to figure it out and if the MX-4 doesn't do the job I am thinking that I might have the opposite of a golden chip and the paste on IHS is super bad. Any ideas?

Hi guys, So i was stress testing my CPU (fx-8350) with prime95 to see how my AIO liquid cooler(CM seidon 120 v2.) was holding up. Ran the test for 16min with a peak temperature on the CPU of 56 degrees celcius, with most of the time being about 54-55 degrees. Here is my question though, what is "TMPIN1" listed under motherboard in hardware monitor. See screenshot below. The motherboard i have is the msi 970 gaming. This TMPIN1 peaked at 99 degrees is this normal? After all it is a synthetic torture test that ran for quite a long time.

So today I decided to do a Torture test on my 4790k with prime95 using the Small FFT s option and my cpu went to 88c in like 30 seconds. Is this normal for a prime95 test using FFT s or what?

Guys, people over at Mersenne Forum found out about the issue while finding prime numbers using Fourier Transformation that Skylake processors (Specifically, Core i7-6700K) freezes after running Prime95 ver. 28.7 for couple of minutes or hours while using AVX2.0 for calculation. What's your word on that? How long would all the motherboard vendors take to release the new "Intel Fix" as a BIOS update? Have you got yours?? Cheers!
-
Hello I've just gotten my FX 8350, and I've been getting some odd results when overclocking. My H75 keeps everything far below the maximum safe operating temp, but my results are all over the place. It has taken this much voltage (1.49v) to get it stable at 4.5... I've got a Corsair RM750 so it shouldn't really be the power supply that's the issue.. And my motherboard is a new MSI 970 Gaming. Here are some screenshots from stress testing and my BIOS settings. Help/Advice would be greatly appreciated! Cheers

I wonder if this is normal. I have weird stains or traces on the stock cooler that came with the i7 4790k CPU. Like it has been already use a lot or something. Here some pictures: http://imgur.com/a/5PGTV I am reaching 100C under lastest Prime 95 within minutes then it starts throlling. Using a Gigabyte G1 Sniper H6 without anything special changed no OC apart the DDR3 from 1333mghz to 1600mghz using the bios profile. (both ram and motherboard are 1600mghz compatible though.) Should I return the i7 to newegg or this is something to be expected? Thanks!

Hello I've smacked a brick wall with my overclock. I recently got a Gigabyte 78LMT-USB3 Rev 6 motherboard with an FX 6350. For some reason I just cannot get it stable unless it's all at stock. I've tried multiple voltages, frequencies and even re-flashing the bios. But nothing seems to help. I can't even get it stable at 4.3 with 1.42v! Anything above gives the same results, a BSOD or an instant power off. I know it isn't my power supply because I've paired it with a new Corsair RM-750, which seems to be complete overkill for a build like mine. My cooler is a Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2. (Prime95) MAX LOAD TEMP AT 4.3Ghz1.42v - 66 Celcius Intel Burn Test destroys it after only 2 results After a couple of minutes cores start dropping (Core 3 first, probably weakest one) Please help, I've just gotten these and I really need the performance boost. Any help is welcome, please get back quick and feel free to check out the attached images.

Hi everyone, Ok, so i'm overclocking for the first time of my life and i have a couple of issues. FX-8350 M5A99X evo r2.0 16g corsair ram 1600 cl9 Corsair HX620W and cooled with an H100i so at 4000MHz using 1.32V i was getting 37C for the core temperature and 57C for the socket temp using Prime95. I've seen that the max recommended for this CPU is 62c/70c so i have a lot of improvement available. So far so good. I went up a couple of times and i first noticed something i'm not sure about when i was at 4500MHz with 1.36 at 46c and 68c. While Prime95 was running, all of the sudden, the temps started to get lower and lower up to 25c/47c and after a while it went up again and crashed. When the temps got lower i noticed that the cpu load was still at 100% but the core went down to about 1600 and my multiplier went from 20 to 7 (using CPU-Z). So i kept going to find the stable spot and i ended up with 4540MHz with 1.38V at 47c/71c (which the max recommended by AMD). Very stable nothing is crashing the stress test can go on for hour but it still going lower from time to time with the same multiplier 7 at 1594MHz. Is it me or those numbers are super low for this computer? I was expecting to get about 4.8-5 with the water cooling. And i also know that cpu slow themselves down when they're too hot. Is it what's going on when i run prime95? If so, isn't it supposed to send some kind of error message? Thanks for helping
