I went into bios, set the core voltage to 1.275 because when I entered in 1.3, the 1.3 turned red. I have a base clock of 100 mhz and cpu multiplier of 45. how long should I run prime 95 ?

i5 4690k cpu devils canyon
msi z97s krait mobo

1.275V sounds right; that's what my i7-3770K is set to. At voltages higher than this, the heat produced rises exponentially and that is not good.

I would be satisfied if prime95 runs for about 2 hours. I don't see any need to stress the parts for extended lengths of time.
