Hey!
I've got yet another issue . Well the overclock works fine if I set bclk to 160, 20x multiplier and adjust ram to 1280 mhz. In a nutshell, it works ok without any voltage changes
Ok, so it runs fine doing an hour test of OCCT and passes 4.5 ish hours of Prime95, peaks at 79c but stays mostly at 76c. I "thought" this was ok because of stuff I'd read about Tcase and Tjunction where RealTemp or Speedfan measure the Tjunction of each core. Tjunction apparently is 5c higher than the Tcase of the overall chip (and here is another question of is the difference 5c or 15c? So is tjmax around 77c or really 87c? or is tjmax entirely unreliable?)
So I was a bit jumpy but mid 70's seemed ok. It finished a number of tests, no errors.
I put it through Linx and it starts hitting 84c so I shut it down. 84 degrees is a bit too much, correct?
I'm cooling using an Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro Rev. 2. Installed everything months ago but overclocking now so the thermalpaste has had time to set. Should I try to reseat? And if I do reseat the heatsink, will I have to wait a while for the paste to set before I start overclocking again?
