i5 2500k @ 4.4Ghz Good Temp?

[Nged72]

I was wondering if these temperatures were okay. I have a CM Hyper 212+ and used Arctic Silver 5 (which I may have put too much on - a large pea) The Prime95 Test was with "In-place Large FFTs"

I went into the BIOS and only changed the Values to 44 without changing voltages, and it seems to run good, although I have not run it more than 16min yet.

Prime95, right before ending it:

Temps look fine

Nope, that's about what I'm getting with the exact same settings and the same cooler at 4.4 GHz (which I finally achieved this evening). I think you're GTG.

The temps are pretty much identical to mine, which they really should be since I have the same CPU and cooler.

One key difference though, mine isn't stable at 4.4GHz :'(

Did you run Prime95 Khon, and if so how long until it failed?

Looks fine. However it wouldn't hurt to try reapplying the thermal paste if you think you put on too much.

My 2600k @ 4.5ghz and 1.3 volts is hovering around 55*C under full load. Seems like your setup is ok.

When I get off of work today, I'll try the two line method on the CM 212+ andsee how that does. I wish the Arctic Silver 5 didn't have a "set" time so long so I could see what the temps would actually be.

I guess I could stop being cheap and get some mx-4

What voltage are you using? What motherboard?

Looking at my fan speed, with the Antec 920, do those look a bit low. The CPU fan also looks awful slow and dips low as well. -_-

In the BIOS it says the CPU fan is running at 1100 rpm

And earlier when running Prime95, HWmonitor was reading my CPU fan at 22 rpm. Normally it's 175-255 rpm so confused
