As the title states, I just OC'd my CPU for the first time, and I'm just wanting to make sure I am ok to leave everything where it's at. I followed one of the guides here, and ended up at stock VCore, Level 2 LLC, and 4.3Ghz.

I'm sure I could play around and get more speed, but to be honest I'm pretty content with the speed as it is. My main concern, is do my temps and everything look ok? I ran the Prime95 Blend test for 12 hours. No WHEA errors, no prime95 errors.

Should I try lowering the VCore below stock?

I'm not trying to get the peak performance out of the CPU, moreso a happy medium between stability, speed, and longevity.

So how'd I do??

Thanks in advance!!

Hyper 212, and what do you mean by load temps? Sorry, once again, total newb.

Wouldn't that be the max temps on the temp monitors during the test?

The screenshot was at the end of the 12 hours. One core reached 87° max. The rest were between 80-84.
