AIDA64 stress-test (duration-time?) on 5820k

[jackthesleeper]

Hello to everybody,

 

On 5820k I am having a stable overclock, I think, of 4.4GHz on 1.25V.

 

I am not a developer or something, and it is not super important for me to run my PC for ages without crashing. I mean a crash will never ruin my life so that's OK for me. 

 

So how much is enough to stress my system for my simple daily uses? The only thing I am aiming for is to get that good OC middle ground while keeping my system on low voltages and low temps as much as I can. 

 

Thank you very much.

I believe 5-8 hours. I ran it for awhile and it crashed at the 4 hour mark.

A night while you are asleep should be enough.

Many will disagree but i find that even running it for a few minutes (15-30) will give you a pretty good idea if the overclock is stable or not. If its not gonna crash during that time its probably not gonna crash ever. Inb4 people yelling at me to run it for 24 or 48 hours... get the fuck outta here with that.

I world go for more then 16 hours so you never have to worry.

I think 8 hours is more than enough, 6 if you feel that's too much.

I definitely agrre with you SuperPug

 

In real world scenario my PC will never even touch the 100% load, except that fucking Chrome, but that's like for a second or two.

 

Like I said above, my PC needs to run quiet and cool-running and not crash during my simpleton's daily usage, because you know it is not like the early 2000's when my light bulbs would start dimming when I run my OC-ed PC.
