Bit of a rant...
posted my spec on the WoW forums.
the number of people that are basically saying i will break my CPU within a week, and that even attempting 5.2ghz was a stupid idea really P**ses me off.. /rant
anyhow, I used RealTemp and Speedfan..
the temps for 5.2Ghz were at...
Ambient is 16c Fan speeds are 2500rpm (on both Corsair fans, performance mode on the H100) the two motherboard fans are running at 6200rpm (surprisingly quiet) when i get time, i'll post all the results :)
if im honest, I just wanted to see what i could get max and stable.. ill probly take it down to 4.8 when im finished, or even 5 if the heat isnt bad :)
next ive just gotta OC my ram :L
I realistically only use it for about 8 hours per day, and thats for Running games on Eyefinity.. whilst gaming it only reaches 52C but i think i might take your advice :)
im running the H100 and Storm Stryker Case.
Might of just got a Gold ticket cpu :)
and im just using the stock paste that came on the H100
Edit.. ill leave a IBT test over night (8 hours) and see what happens
ill post the results in the morning
okay, so i've currently decided to push my CPU even further....
Now im running at 5.2gHz and 1.37v
Idle temp 30c
Load temp using IBT and Prime 95 is around 75-80c
Does this sound decent guys ?
