5950x temperature

[Mike171]

Quick question

I am a newbie at overclocking

Should I be worried that my 5950x is running at 90c max under stress using cinebench r23 at 5.1 GHz max frequency?

Or it is better to revert to the stock frequency

Thanks in advance

Do you mind to explain it?

90 is ok, lower is better of course. The cooler they run the higher they boost as long as it isn’t maxed out on power.
