High Temps. on CPU

[chriscoolzap]

Hey, 

        I've been trying to overclock my 4790k but when i put 4.4GHZ with a voltage of 1.250. The temperatures of the cpu hit 65-70 celsius when stress testing on Aida64. The system is stable. Any suggestions on why this is happening? I have changed the thermal paste, cleared cmos battery, updated bios and i have a kraken x61 cooler.

They are good temperatures, you can't expect to find them in real world situations either, you have no need to worry

What temps you want?

i was just wondering why linus has 4.7 ghz on 1.300 with a temp of 65 and i havent even reached that clock and i have these temps

 

also many people that have kraken x61 have temps of 50-55

4.4ghz is the max turbo speed. If you set your system profile to XMP/Performance it will force the CPU to stay at 4.4ghz

but on linus video he says to turn it on

yeah exactly im just letting you know 4.4ghz at its auto default voltages is perfectly safe. Its not really Overclocking .

 

Just be aware that you will gain 0 FPS in games Overclocking a 4790k as its not the CPU thats the bottleneck it will be your GPU(S) (I tested this on my own rig)
