Hello,
Trying to reach a stable OC with my 8350.
Set up:
Mobo Crosshair formula z
CPU fx 8350
Cooler H100i x2 sf120 fans
Psu Corsair ax860
Ram Gskill trident 2400 cas10 under clocked in most tests just to see what I can OC to first.
3 af120 fans positioned as intake
Case C70 vengeance
Now stock temps are around 34-37 socket is this even decent? My house isn't that hot at all. Should I get some thermal paste and apply it? the H100i already had some pre applied but is that good enough stuff?
I did prime95 tests all the way up to 4.7ghz at 1.46 volts after 10 minutes but the temps hit close to 69 so I backed off fearing the 70 mark would degrade my chip as per some Of the other forum posts. All tests passed but I wasn't happy with the temp on the 4.7.
70 socket and 60 CPU is the rule of thumb correct? Usually they go hand in hand but just in a 10 degrees variance.
Any help would be great.
Thanks
