Hardware Is my 4670k overclocked fine?

[jDSX]

Just wondering if it'd overclocked good or bad it's OC'd to 4.30ghz from it's stock 3.50ghz also on the hyper evo 212 cooler, seems to work fine playing games never going above 65c on load in fallout, haven't tested gta V yet but will soon it's never crashed or bosd so far am I safe to assume it's stable from being on for four days straight? Would anyone spot any issues with these values?

Seems fine. Run AIDA64 for a half hour or so and if you don't BSOD you're most likely stable

Okay should I stress the FPU too or leave it unchecked?

I honestly don't think it matters, but if you want to be safe you could run the test twice

A good stability test is usually 12-18 hours (or overnight). A solid 24 hours will definitely tell you.

Doesn't that damage the cpu if it's stressed constantly (24hrs) at say a temperature of 80c?

You'll generally spot a bad overclock within an hour though, in my experience

I thought so too.. But on my 4670k I ran an hour stress with Aida and thought everything was fine.. Played some crysis and had a few tabs opened and bsod... 3 hours into my next test I found my OC was barely failing.

If stressed for extended periods (days).

Generally speaking? Let the stress run overnight. If it's still going in the morning? It should be fine.

Also, your voltages are good, but if you find time see if you can't lower them. It'll help in the long term. My 4670k was at 4.5GHz at 1.21v. 1.2v stable, but I went up for who knows why.

Got my 4790k @4.5GHz and 1.195v

Thanks guys, ran adia64 stress overnight and it was fine everything is still running good

The highest i got was 4.7ghz @ 1.32v
But it was WAY too hot.

1 hour is fine... the thing is, you should test with different tools\different stuff, prime95 for example, and other stressing tools

i don't see the point of running a tool for 24-48 hours.. that's overkill...
even 1-2 hour at full load is enough for testing watercooling

Reread what you quoted...

Also Prime 95 is overkill as it stresses the ever loving hell out if your CPU.. and no, 24 hours isn't overkill... Aida64 is a good enough benchmark to get a feel for real world usage. Prime95 is completely unnecessary.

It looks totally fine. So you should be good to go!

Yeah, I've your same CPU and that's fine. (I've got the same cooler, too). Ofc in DirectX12 I see an increase of temp or in some emulator like Dolphin and Citra (that uses a lot of Intercompiler CPU functions).

 

[DarkGabbz]

It runs i guess

Yup, but I prefer the x90 series. They changed the thermal paste to improve the cooling system.
The stock i5-4690k runs exactly like my i5-4670k with the 212 evo.
