I increased my old i7 860 to 3.6 max temp is 74c during BF4 and BF 1 and stress testing is still okay. This is my backup gaming PC. Overclock 200 x 18 3600mhz, Ram 1600 mhz stock speed, voltage 1.152, cooler 212 evo 3 noctua fans all fans are running "normal" in bios. Is this temperature a concern?

Warm yet secure. Slightly above the recommended maximum temperature (72.7°C), but such minor fluctuations are harmless.

The overclock remained unstable throughout the entire night while running BF4, though it experienced a crash during BF1.
