Hey all.

 

I recently OCed my ryzen 2600 to 4Ghz at 1.275v and I am having inconsistent temps on idle.

While the temps are quite safe, I am still wondering if this sort of mild spikes can shorten the CPU's lifespan on the long run?

A photo is attached of how it looks like while browsing.
It usually goes between 33-46c

 

Mobo: AsRock x470 Master SLI

CPU fan: DeepCool Gammaxx 400

Thanks for the help!

PS: while system stability hasn't been tested to the max, I've still done a few benchmarks without any crash and the highest temp recorded was on Cinebench at 69c.

VRM is at 37-42c on idle, and max at 55c on benchmarks.

Power mode: AMD Ryzen Balanced

^That's true. Most of it is triggered by mouse movement, opening new tabs, refreshing webpage etc.
The thing is that these spikes are much more mild and have a curvature when I am on my stock frequency settings with voltage offset -100mV.
But when OCed, the spikes can jump up to 20c while browsing.

Perhaps the title is a bit misleading.
Casual (low) workload causes this rather than being on idle.
