prime95 torture test temps
I recently increased my i5-4690k's clock speed to 4.6ghz. During stress tests on aida64, my temperatures stayed around 60°C and on prime95 they were in the 80°C range. This shows how well the CPU handles high loads without overheating. Even though I haven't reached those temperatures while playing games yet, the high temps during testing suggest it might affect performance later. Regarding the torture test, running very hot could mean you should lower the speed to avoid damage.
This indicates that Prime95 versions after 26.6 (including AIDA) aren't suitable for most Intel processors, often causing inaccurate temperature readings due to excessive use of AVX. Refer to section 12. The 80C model isn't reliable for long-term use either.
I recently increased my i5-4690k to 4.6ghz for stress testing. During the tests, I saw temperatures around 60°C on AIDA64 and up to 80°C on Prime95. This raises questions about how these temperatures affect gaming performance, especially since they haven’t reached those levels in games yet. Also, if high temps occur during the stress test, it might mean I should lower the settings even if I don’t hit those numbers while playing. A temperature of 80°C during full load is normal, but exceeding 90°C could require reducing the multiplier or voltage.

This raises questions about how that affects actual gaming performance, especially since I haven’t reached those high temps in games yet. Also, if my CPU hits 80°C during the full load test, does that mean I should lower the settings even though it doesn’t occur while playing? A temperature of 80°C is normal at 100%, but going above 90°C would require reducing the multiplier or voltage. Personally, my average was about 58°C on AIDA64 with a 6800k @ 4.2Ghz - 1.3V, so I have plenty of room to adjust.
