I have a Corsair Hydro Series H60 CPU Cooler and a i7-4770k. I have vcore on 1.28, ring 1.249 and vin on 1.8v. After 1 hour ~ on prime 95 it gets too 85 ~ on 4.1ghz. Why does it get so high?

If your CPU temperature only is 85°C after an hour of the latest version of P95, then you have no issue at all; it probably won't reach more than 70-72°C with P95 26.6. A few minutes of testing is enough to determine if the cooler works properly.

If P95 version 26.6, then it isn't very good, but if you used the latest version, then it's excellent (the latest version will heat the CPU 10-15°C more than version 26.6).

It's the newest one. Should I try with 26.6?

Also how long should I stresstest?
