I have overclocked a 2500k which is 8 hours prime95 stable in small ffts.

I was looking to widen testing with 20 or so runs of intel burn test and some blend on prime also.

When i started the intel burn test within seconds i noticed that my TDP had shot up to well over 100W TDP and shut it off immediately. Is this normal?

Prime95 stays within 95W range, usually within the 80s.

Thanks,
