i7 7700k XTU
I'm new to OC'ing and want to check if my temperatures during stress testing on XTU are normal. My cooler- Kraken x72 has an i7-7700k at 4.9GHz with temps ranging from 1.394 to 1.401v. The average was between 85-89°C, but I reached the upper 80s near the end of the test. The session lasted only 5 minutes, which is short, but I wanted to observe the temperatures. I didn't manually overclock; instead, I used EZTuneUtility in my BIOS, which might give a more accurate reading if I try it myself.
I wouldn't let the voltage get that high. I'd cap it at most around 1.35V. Here is a chart of what other people have done with the 7700k. Any you'll see rarely is voltage that high, and when the 7700k is also delidded. Suggesting more enthusiasts that really push it will add that much voltage. But if you want it to last a long time. Pull back the voltage.

Also, you could delid the 700k and you'll see 10-20C drop in tests.
Upper 80s is pretty damn hot. Upper 70s is my limit.

I most likely wont delid it and I just let it hit that voltage too see what would happen. Since im rather new im kinda tempted to try it with my older system fx-6300 w/212 EVO cooler. Thanks for the link, will definitely come in handy
