How Realistic is it if I'm Using the IntelBurnTest after Checking my CPU for Stability?
I mean, I tested it when I first bought the i7-4770K and everything looked great and still looks great.
I don't want to kill my CPU so I could use a little help or any suggestions.
Thanks, Nathaniel.

The IBT generally will put far more load on your CPU than you will ever do in normal use, so its pretty good stability test - i.e if it doesnt crash during the test, then its unlikely to ever crash due to a cpu/ram stability issue.


I wouldnt recommend doing it if you are using the stock cooler though, as IBT tends to get the CPU very hot.

Well I'm not using a stock cooler, I'm using one of the best AIO coolers, well that's IMO.
I heard, well read that the IBT actually increases that temp's higher than most tests.
