I'm working on attaining a steady 3.9ghz with the AMD Phenom ii x6 1055T.
Stability remains my main worry. I haven't tested Prime95 with this configuration for more than ten minutes due to uncertainty about voltage and temperature settings.

I'm using Coolermaster Vortex Plus, which provides good airflow throughout the case.

When leading as Prime 95, reaching a CPU at full capacity in 10 to 15 minutes indicates strong thermal performance, especially if the mainboard doesn’t show any throttling from the VRM.

I was using a 550W CoolerMaster PSU that had been neglected. It overheated during a tough gaming session last night, causing it to fail. Nothing else got damaged, but I pushed it beyond its limits.

I switched to a 650W Thermaltake Semi-modular SMART series from my dad, lowered the CPU to 3.75ghz and adjusted voltages back to normal (except RAM). Before it crashed last night, TMPIN1 reached 82°C according to CPUID on HWMonitor, while other temperatures were within range. I’m not sure what TMPIN1 stands for, but I’ll investigate soon. Does this relate to the PSU temperature?

I probably won’t try it again until I have more information. This PSU looks clean and ready, so it seems safe to proceed—just keep an eye on things.
