i7 4790k temps

[milkpumba]

Just installed a 4790k. Everything is on stock right now, no overclock. I'm also using the stock cooler. Planning on getting a 212 in the next week or so. Tried stress testing it with Aida64 for a good 15 mins and my temperature on 100% load was about the mid 70s range. Is this a normal temperature especially when using the stock cooler?

I would say it's about right, not unexpected from the Intel cooler.

Once I install a 212, what should I expect my temperature range to be if you don't mind me asking?

Also - I tried testing with Prime95 and the shit skyrocketed my temps to the low 90s. I did read however that there's some sort of incompatibility with haswell chips and prime95, is this true and should I be worried?  :unsure:

Yeah don't use Prime 95, it pushes the CPU far too hard giving unrealistic results. As for the hyper 212 you should be able to keep it fairly cool, it depends on the chip but maybe 55C on stock which will allow for a fair bit of overclocking.

Well my CPU thermal throttles with the stock cooler, but I use occt, and I have seen my temps go up to 100 in GTA v.... I need to buy some cooler stuff...

Dont use Prime ever. Period.

That's what I thought! Thanks so much man!

Is Aida64 alright to use though. If not, what would you recommend?

Yes Adia 64, Intel XTU, and RealBench are all good options.

I can probly drop ur voltage if ur at stock speeds to 1.16 v but make sure u set it on the vcore offset

I just wanted to give you an update! I just installed a hyper 212 and my temps are at the 50s now on aida64. Thanks so much for the help man!
