Best way to stress test a 6700k?

Dr Girlfriend · Dec 3, 2016

I've ran Intels extreme tuning utility stress test for an hour with a max temp of 55c, ran prime 95 small fft tourture test for an hour with a max temp of 65c.

I'm on air cooling, am I okay to explore overclocking? Is there a better stress test I can run?

Edit: both tests run at stock with 1.2vcore set in bios.

You'll be fine to start overclocking, a good starting baseline is 4.7GHz 1.4v, very stable clock I use on client rigs with the 6700k. Furmark is also great.

What temps do you normally see idle/load with that? Is that on air?

I have a Kraken x61 on the silent preset and usually see about 35c at idle, highest i've seen at gaming load is 68c I think.

I idle at ~28-30c with my air cooler, so I'll push it a 2-300mhz I think, and see what happens. Thanks!

Edit: OCed to 4200mhz, still at 1.2v and temps are the same. Pushing higher!
