High temperatures at 2600 MHz with 3.8 GHz performance under running Cinebench r20
I tried the hyper 212 evo because it was already coming, and it reduced my temps in the cinebench R20 test by about 24c on average. I managed to hit 4.0ghz at 1.3125v, and reached around 61c after a 30-minute stress test on the Asus Realbench. I’m thinking of doing an 8-hour session this weekend.
Maybe there was an issue with the stealth cooler—hard to say, since it seems like a straightforward setup.
I don't think the stock cooler have something wrong, its just not enough for OC the 2600 and going with high loads.
Stock cooler is "designed" for a cheap solution to use under the specs condition of the CPU (or atleast it should be, yes Intel Im specially looking at you!). Now, once you set foot in the high OC arena, the stock cooler need to be replaced asap for a better/real one.
Im glad you guys worked out !!!
Cheers
It seems you might have been considering the stock cooler for the 2600x. The 212 evo is a decent cooler, and it worked well for you!
I'm really satisfied with the results. I managed to run it at 4ghz @ 1.3125v for 8 hours on realbench, reaching a peak of 71c. Initially faced some issues during testing, but soon discovered that my GPU overclock was the cause of instability. After turning off afterburner, clearing the drivers with ddu, and reinstalling, it became stable again.
