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?

Now I've set the clock to 4,4 at 1.3800 volts and ran Prime95 for 20 minutes, achieving a temperature of up to 71 degrees Celsius. Is that acceptable? That's an excellent overclock and shouldn't impact lifespan.

Taking into account your vcore, using Prime95 is manageable. For accurate testing, opt for version 26.6 or earlier. Newer releases include AVX features that lead to excessively high temperatures not experienced in real conditions. It's best to limit the vcore to under 1.4 and accept the highest stable overclock you can reach. A maximum temperature of 70°C provides some thermal flexibility for varying ambient conditions.

It seems better to maintain 4.5 GHz with a 1.3950 Vcore since I was stable before.
I tried 1.3900 and ended up with a blue screen :/ Thanks for the advice, I’ll give it another shot soon.

Not a lot of real world difference between 4.5 and 4.6. 4.5 on air is a good overclock and I would be happy with that.

Download and execute OCCT not prime 95.
I would maintain the voltage at a maximum of 1.40.
