7700k 4.7 overclock, safe?
7700k 4.7 overclock, safe?
Hey, just checking if your temps and voltages are okay.
My highest temperature is about 77°C during long sessions of CSGO or PUGB.
I used the BIOS auto overclock, which is at 4705MHz.
I'm using an ASUS Z270 motherboard with a Zalman CNPS10X cooler—though I haven't upgraded to a more expensive one yet.
🙁
Those figures are remarkably low... particularly considering the cooler being employed. Are these acceptable temperatures... yes, running these applications or games isn't a concern, but what about when more demanding tasks are applied? What about workloads utilizing AVX or other advanced instruction sets? I recommend executing a standardized benchmark application that can be compared with numerous user tests. Utilize HWiNFo to track temperatures and voltages per core and perform RoG Real Bench.

When you launch Real Bench, shift both windows to the left side of the screen. Open HWiNFO64, run "sensors..."

When you launch Real Bench, position both windows on the left side of the screen. Open HWiNFO64, select "sensors only" and keep it on the right side... you'll notice why a lot of windows open on the left when starting RB. Execute an 8-minute benchmark, recording peak temperatures and voltages for each core during the test. If you can maintain temperatures in the mid to high 70s, that's ideal.

Sure, running these apps or games is fine, but what about when you run something that demands more intensive processing? What about tasks using AVX or other advanced instruction sets? I recommend testing a standardized application benchmark that can be compared with many user tests. You could use HWiNFo to track temperatures and voltages in each core and perform RoG Real Bench.
