Overclocking I5 8600k
Your CPU voltage is at 1.35 at 4.5V, which is within the normal range for your setup. The observed maximum temperature of around 88°C is typical under load and should be considered safe if cooling is adequate. No adjustments are necessary unless temperatures rise further.
Max 88C while under 100% load? That’s quite high. Consider reducing the voltage since voltage mainly affects heat. Try setting it to 1.3 at 4.5, and if it stays stable, keep it. These newer Intel CPUs tend to overheat, and with just an air cooler, it’s still a decent option. Avoid anything above 80 for extended periods—it’s bad—but since you’re at full load, aim for 80 under 100% or at least 82. If you need extra safety, ensure it’s below 75.
