I am using prime95 small ffts for thermal testing. After 15 minutes the hottest core reaches 71 degrees Celsius. What temperature would you think is the maximum safe level? Thanks!

Safe temperatures usually stay in the mid-70s for haswell, so staying below 75 is ideal. Peak temps reach around 82, but it's best to keep it lower.

No issues, just curious to know the speed and voltage you've achieved so far.

It's quite impressive, you can achieve around 4.8ghz at approximately 1.30.
