Hello Guys i have gotten a stable overclock at 4.2Ghz but my CPU goes over 85C under 100% load on Prime 95 is this good? btw it is running at 1.199Voltage.

i5:4670k
Cooler master hyper 212 Evo
asus z87-a

In addtion it was running at around 60-67 C over in the first couple of hours after about 5 hours of running prime 95 when i woke up it was around 80-86 C did it go up because i have been running it for hours or did it just get hotter because of the day? Thanks

If your room temperature was relatively constant between your initial warm-up and final temperature, you might have insufficient airflow across the CPU area. Do you have a rear exhaust fan for the CPU area? If not, you might want to relocate one of your existing case fans there or get a new one for it.
