9700k max temps?

[Collinator24]

Hello,

I recently overclocked my 9700k to 5ghz, and under load running userbenchmark my temps go up to 78 degrees Celsius. Under load in aida64 it goes up to 63. Is that okay? I have a freezer 33 esports one cooler that keeps it at like 40 idle.

anything under tjmax is fine; 78 is fine, 63 is fine.

 

for comfort, at full load anything under 90 is great

Use FPU in AIDA64 instead

Will do. Just started and it is at 73 degrees with little fluctuation, and the highest core at ~76

Sounds good, as long as it is stable and doesn't die early.

73C is nothing. These chips can go up to 100C before they thermally throttle. As long as you're under 90C load you're good to go. The lower the better, of course.

 

My load Temps are high 70s under load on mine at 5GHz 1.29V, so you're fine.

Thanks for the info. I have been running a stress test on the FPU and CPU for 22 mins now, everything seems stable.

Stress test for aida64 is merely a good starting point. Do not trust it as an overall stress test.

 

What I mean by that is: if it fails an hour of AIDA64 something is clearly unstable, but if it passes, that doesn't mean you're totally stable.

 

For reference, I've had settings pass an hour of combined CPU FPU Memory stress testing on AIDA64 and fail elsewhere. I've also had a RAM OC pass an hour of Memtest only to fail AIDA64's in 10 minutes. So a good mix of tests, along with just plain gaming on it and seeing if it freezes is highly recommended when testing an overclock for stability. I personally still use Prime95 26.6 as well even though some people swear against it these days as you see "unrealistic Temps" in it.

My personal gamut is Cinebench once, if it fails, back to BIOS. If it passes

-> 2 hours of A64 stressing CPU/Memory/FPU/GPU

-> 2 hours of Realbench 

-> run your normal shit

 

if it passes all that stuff, it's probably fine.

Yeah. My old OC would crash in r6 sometimes, but on this one, it does not. Still going to do more testing. So far, it seems better.

Got a 9700k, climbs to 85C when playing BFV 4k high specs RTX on DLSS off.

 

No worries
