I've been executing an aida64 stress test on my CPU for 12 hours and it finished without issues at 1.325v. It's stable there; lowering it might cause crashes. Should I keep it at this speed or return to 4.2ghz where I reached 63°C? My H100i GTX cooler is handling it well.
It is fine and stays within its temperature range. Standard operation won't encounter such a temperature.
Rolli59 confirms it's fine and stays within thermal limits. The normal load shouldn't experience such temperatures. I've also observed similar temperatures in the game.
