Prime95 - restart 24h test if you didn't notice any errors or warnings?
Prime95 - restart 24h test if you didn't notice any errors or warnings?
I just completed a 24-hour stress test on my CPU after overclocking. Everything seemed normal until I stopped the test. I didn’t realize I needed to hit Esc and then click Stop. After closing it, I noticed the CPU load was still at 100%. In the end, I wasn’t sure if any errors or warnings appeared. Should I run the test again and close it properly to check for issues?
If the small FFT tests passed and temperatures stayed within limits, everything looks fine. No further testing is required.
Assuming the Small FFTs test passed and all metrics were within limits, I believe you're ready to proceed. No further testing is necessary. Thanks for your response.

I also discovered there were no errors or warnings in the "result.txt" file. Since I'm unfamiliar with overclocking and Prime95, I followed the video settings instead of the exact ones used.

Would you be confident the setup remains stable after running the test for 24 hours? Or should I also perform a RAM check?
YouTube videos often have questionable values, as creators choose arbitrary numbers. They don't clarify the connection between clock speed, VCORE, and heat. They select figures that are likely to work in most cases without going into detail.
In the video mentioned, the creator boosted their CPU to 4.5 Ghz with a 1.25 VCORE, but the actual settings might vary significantly depending on the specific CPU model. Even if the CPU is identical, the required VCORE could be different, potentially leading to excessive heat generation. It seems the creator didn't specify the cooler being used.
Based on what I heard, your overclock should function properly as long as temperatures stay within limits. However, focusing on learning overclocking techniques could yield better outcomes and help you troubleshoot problems more effectively.

YouTube videos often lack clarity since creators arbitrarily choose values. They overlook the connection between clock speed, VCORE, and heat generation. In the video discussed, the creator boosted their CPU to 4.5 Ghz with a 1.25 VCORE, but your specific CPU might require a different setting, potentially increasing heat unnecessarily. Unless you missed something, they didn’t specify the cooler being used.
If the overclock is stable and temperatures stay within limits, it should work fine. However, spending time to learn overclocking techniques could help you avoid mistakes and troubleshoot problems more effectively. You might also want to test your RAM alongside.
Keep an eye on temperature, especially at higher speeds. The 1344k test was run, but I’m planning to give it a try without using the computer for 24 hours again. Thanks a lot!

Unless noted otherwise, they didn't mention the cooler being used. It seems your overclock is functioning well if temperatures stay within limits. Still, it would be better to learn overclocking yourself rather than copying someone else's exact settings. This approach also helps in troubleshooting future problems.
