Ballizt :
To determine the right overclocking level, I’d run tests until instability appears, then gradually reduce until stability is achieved. For Intel Burn in Test, 50 passes at standard settings should take roughly 10 minutes and provide reliable results. Prime95 requires about 8-9 hours overnight. Realbench stress tests last around 8 hours. If any test fails, adjust voltage based on the failure area and stress conditions, considering your system specs would help.
