Check if the FX 8370 black edition OC 4.7GHz at 1.35V can be improved further.
The FX 8370 black edition OC 4.7ghz at 1.35v full load temperature is running at 54°C with 45% CPU usage on the package. Is it safe to push further? I’m unsure what makes this processor stand out, but it seems to handle sustained gaming and long coding sessions well.
I owned an 8320 for nearly five years and managed to achieve a score of 4.7. It wasn't a constant 24/7 operation, just occasional crashes about once a week or so. If you're aiming for higher performance, you might try pushing it to 5 at increased voltage. Just remember, cooling your VRMs properly is essential if you plan to overclock and adjust the voltage.

Playing wow and cod isn't a stress test. I think it won't last more than 10 minutes in Prime95. You can push it further, though. AMD recommended a max voltage of 1.5V.
I also ran a 25-minute CPU stress test.
You aren't providing any evidence for what you say. That suggests it's probably a lie.
I'm still getting familiar with the platform, but no worries, I'm here to help. Just let me know if you need any guidance!
Test the system by scrolling down for the program. This is designed to push the CPU to its limits. Perform a stress test with small FFTs and run it for an hour. If it runs without crashes, it should be stable. Most users actually run it continuously, but this setup is more intense than normal usage. It’s not required for everyday operation.

While running the test, keep the system idle except for the program. Use HWMonitor and ignore any unrelated metrics.

After completing these steps, capture the results and share them on a platform like Imgur with the link. This will serve as evidence of stability.
It will display your setup clearly, confirming it is reliable. I verified mine for just 10 minutes to illustrate the process. My system is stable without needing an hour.
Note: Intel CPUs generally handle heat better than AMD FX series. Keep temperatures under 62°C; at 72°C it may begin throttling.

This is for testing the stability of the system. Follow the instructions carefully. The goal is to stress test the CPU and run a long duration test. If the program runs without crashes after an hour, it should be considered stable. Most users perform this test for 24 hours, but since this is more intense than typical usage, you won’t need to do it regularly during normal operation.

While performing the test, keep the program running in the background. Monitor with HWMonitor and ignore any unrelated metrics such as vcore, CPU speed, or temperature.

Thank you for sharing this information. I already have a Prime 95 system and will share the results once I receive them. Your message was clear—I didn’t mean to be too quick, just new to this process. Thanks!
After completing these steps, gather all the images together and upload them to a platform like Imgur with the link here. This will serve as proof of stability. It will display not only your setup but also confirm its reliability. I tested mine for just 10 minutes to illustrate the process; my system is stable without needing an hour-long run.
Note: Intel CPUs generally handle higher temperatures better than AMD FX series. Keep the temperature below 62°C, and at 72°C it may begin throttling.
