Hi guys I would just like to run my temperatures with you, my set up is an i5 4690k, an asrock z97 extreme4, an overclocked r9 290 powercolor PCS+, and I'm cooling my cpu with a corsair h100i gtx.
My ambient room temperature was 22 degrees while testing, my first test was my cpu on a turbo boost to 3.9GHz, stock is 3.5GHz, and with a 1 hour stress test on aida64 my maximum temperature was 49 degrees Celsius. (I have a static fan speed of 40 percent and I did not change it for any of the tests, I also have my pump on quiet not on performance just because I'm a little paranoid about pump life LOL.)
I then put on my 1GHz overclock to 4.5GHz and repeat the same test, aida64 for an hour, and my max temperature was 67 degrees Celsius. I kept this overclock for about a week monitoring temperatures and taking benchmarks (my system on cinebench overclocked scored 707 overclocked and scored 10507 on 3dmark demo firestrike) with my max temp for gaming and benchmarking going to 61 degrees (from playing battlefield 1 on a very hot day). Now with all this during hotter days I noticed on another stress test my max temp went up to 74 degrees Celsius.
Is this a successful overclock and should I be worrying about temperatures? Could this affect the life span of my cpu?
Thanks
