Hello all.
I am still quite new to computers so i'm a noob.
Anyway I built my first gaming rig and its nice. (albeit no gpu yet )
so now I am venturing into overclocking so I decided to do a benchmark as sort of a control. so I set up occ and use linpack (intel burn test I think ) so I start it and 10 seconds later core temps are at 90c and it shuts down. but I know those are not the actual temps because it instantly drops back down to the original temp.
what is the problem?
my specs are
i5-3570k
stock cooler (im getting cm 212 soon)
ASrock z77 pro4
8gb 1600 ram
