Hi guys,

I'm currently using a Kraken x61 cooler on it.

I'm OCing it to 4.7Ghz
using HWMonitor
1.375 V and maximum averages around 69c with some cores going to 74c

but when I check NZXT CAM it shows only <50c (40+c) when I am playing CS:GO

so I'm not sure which is correct...

It should be noted that im using the iGPU as a placeholder as i'm waiting for new generation cards and I live in SIngapore where ambient temperatures are 32-33 in the day and 30 in the night (when I normally use the computer)

There are no stability problems, computer is working flawlessly.

Is it safe? Should I tone down the OC untill I get a GPU?
