How long to run AIDA64 i7-7700k?
If you're trying to overclock and maintain stability, generally results between a few hours to a full day are normal. That being said, if your stock runs for a couple of hours, it's probably acceptable unless you're facing stability problems, then extending to 6-12 hours would be better. For overclocking, I suggest at least 4 hours up to around 12 hours, unless you have a mission-critical task, in which case a full 24 hours isn't necessarily a bad approach.
I'm checking the stability at 4.8ghz with a core voltage of 1.210 on the Kaby 7700k, making sure it won't fail from prolonged use.
Keep an eye on your temps. Makes sure you stay below 80C, IMO some might argue less the 85C is ok. I prefer less the 75C in my own rigs for example. If your temps are good this is a great way to break in your thermal paste as well as test your CPU. Regardless if the OC/temps are good going for a full 24hrs should not be an issue. Just don't make it a daily thing is all
😉
Only stress test when making changes to your OC and you should be ok, generally speaking. Yes it is possible something may fry, a risk every OCer takes. You should be OK though as long as temps are low and voltages remain below 1.35.
The system should confirm if adaptive mode is required post-stable clock setup, and instructions on configuring it afterward are provided.
