Hi,
I'm stress testing my new build with Prime95. I'm using the custom torture test with the default values. The only thing I changed was the memory to be tested from 2000 to 16000. Two hours ago the software that came with my Asus Maximus Hero showed the CPU at 77-78c. I thought that was a little high. I just checked it again and the temps are down to about 69-70c. Is this usual? This is the first time I've tried the stress test.
I was worried because I mounted the heat sink a few days before I turned the computer on. I wasn't sure if you need to turn it on right away to get the paste to seat properly (from the heat).
Here is my relevant system info:
i7 4771
Asus Maximus Hero
Cooler Master Hyper Evo with second fan attached.
CM Storm Stryker with the stock fans facing front and 2 additional fans at the bottom.
16GB gskill ram
MSI GTX 770 2GB
Thanks,
Phil
