So now i've attempted to overclock my i7 2600k using a hyper 212 Evo at 4,6 ghz. When I ran Prime95 in Blend mode for 10 minutes, I reached the highest temperature of 82 degrees Celsius. Is this a positive result or something to avoid? I'm running at 1.4300 volts with an MSI z68 gd55 motherboard. Before that, I was stable at around mid-70s after a 10-minute Blend test at 1.3950 volts. What temperature should I aim for in Prime95 after about 10 minutes?
