My setup includes an Intel i5 6600K processor, Asus Z170-K motherboard, Cooling SE214 cooler, Crucial RAM with heatsinks, a Samsung M.2 HDD and a Toshiba 1TB drive, a Yeston RX570 VGA, a Zalman Gigamax 550w power supply, a Zalman Z3 case with cooling fans, Windows 10 Home 64bit OS. I'm running at 4.3GHz with a VCore of 1.280V that spikes to 1.296V, max temps stay around 79°C. RAM is overclocked to 2666MHz at 1.35V CL15. It's stable for Dota 2 and daily tasks. I'm asking for your thoughts on stability and safety for continuous use. Your feedback would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

It looks quite stable to me. Perhaps it would be better to extend the stress in prime 95 for a longer duration to confirm.

It looks quite consistent so far. You might consider extending the stress to the prime number 95 for added assurance.

Please confirm if the setup allows continuous operation.
