Hello all!

I am having alot of problems with my 7700K, using a NZXT x62
To run stable at 4.6GHz the voltage is set at 1.250v, and temps spike up to 55-60c in idle, 36c being minimum.

What should I do? Lower voltage and I get BSOD. Should I put the rad in the front of my case (Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX) and get some new thermal paste?

Thanks!

I have the same setup but 4.8ghz and I achieve temps of 64c under 100% load on AIDA64 (Ran for 20 minutes), try a even lower voltage I managed to achieve 1.234 with great stability and temps. I also applied new thermal paste (Arctic silver 5) on the cpu which got my temps to drop 4-5c

my idle is usually 30c average as well and thats with a ambient temperature of 18c
