put it under full load with Prime95. If the temps don't go over 80c you should be fine.

1,35 V is a lot (I have my cpu @1,22 Volt @4,5 ghz)

My Pc: Cpu: I7 4790k @ 4,8 Ghz @1,25 volts, Motherboard: Maximus VII Formula, Graphicscard: 2x Titan X @1,4 at stock voltage (soon to be replaced), Ram: 32 gb Corsair Dominator Platinum 2133 Cl 9, SSD: 2x 850 Pro 1 Tb in Raid 0, 2x Samsung 840 Evo 1 tb raid 1,, PSU: Corsair HXi Series 1000W 80+ Platinum, Case: H440. Soon to be watercooled again, maybe, probably, the Titans are too loud.

Remember the silicon lottery. From the sounds of it you really lucked out with your CPU.

It's not recommended to use Prime95 with Haswell CPU's because they can cause the CPU to go crazy in terms of thermals. AIDA64 or the Intel Extreme Tuning Utility are the recommended tools. At least until/if Prime95 gets a Haswell compatible update.

You're right of course, the 3570k is Ivy Bridge. I misread it as the 4670k since most of these newer threads are about Haswell :P

 

In this case, yeah, Prime95 is perfectly safe, and a great program. I really do hope they release a patch for Haswell mind you.
