Question about Haswell i5 temperature
Question about Haswell i5 temperature
BIOS settings adjusted for my i5 4670k at 4.2 volts. It seems stable so far. This was my initial overclock attempt, and I've been using it for two days without any throttling. Performance remains strong during games, and temperatures stayed within normal ranges. After about 30 minutes in AIDA64, the peak reached 86°C, with an average of 74-78°C. Everything appears to be functioning well.
Hammad5161 shared that their PC restarted during a game session without BSOD, and today they experienced a BSOD while playing Battlefield 1 ("we're just collecting info and restarting for you"). The CPU wasn't throttling, and temperatures stayed below 75°C for both CPU and GPU, as monitored via Rivatuner. Changing the voltage from 1.225 to 1.235 seems sufficient. Increasing by 0.01v might not be enough for such high clock speeds. It's recommended to adjust the voltage in small increments until stability is achieved or temperatures rise further.
Yes, you might want to consider it. At that temperature range, 4.4ghz could be suitable for the game.
For continuous use I wouldn't go much higher... 86°C is still fine (though it's a bit high) but even higher temperatures aren't ideal... For me, I prefer to keep the CPU at its MAX of 80°C during a Prime95 Stresstest...
This helps me ensure my CPU stays cool and comfortable while gaming, so I don't have to worry about overheating.
Thanks! Should I consider using 4.4ghz? The game runs at half hour with temperatures around 65-70 degrees. Try it and check the readings. If your temps during stress tests stay above 80C, you might need to lower the overclock or upgrade your cooler.
my pc restarted yesterday while playing arma without a crash, and today battlefield 1 had a BSOD ("we're just collecting info and restarting for you"). The cpu wasn't throttling, and temperatures stayed under 75°c for both cpu and gpu, which i track using rivatuner. I adjusted the voltage from 1.225 to 1.235—was that sufficient?
Hey, just let me know what needs adjusting after you added the picture, thanks.
