Running:
Windows 7 Home Premium 32-bit (6.1, Build 7601) Service Pack 1
MOBO: Gigabyte 990FXA-UD3 - Running latest BIOS - ver F6f
Processor: AMD FX-6100 3.3 GHz Six-Core Processor
Video: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 550 Ti - Running latest drivers - 285.62
Basically I am just looking for some reassurance. I have gotten such a nice computer from my family and I don't want to cause any undo wear. I am using EasyTune 6, under the QuickBoost option. I set the system under the first tier green setting of 4 GHz from 3.3 GHz. I have the stock cooler from AMD running at full RPM. I installed a Thermaltake fan in every available spot for a total of 4 in the case. Fronts exhausting into the case with the top and top rear exhausting out. All fans running at full RPM.
I have been monitoring the temp and sitting still the processor is at 30C (93F). The most I have seen it at is 46C (116F). I ran the basic, Performance preset test from 3DMark11 and everything ran fine. No hiccups, locks, etc.
So basically should I be concerned about any excessive wear? This is my first venture into playing with any overclocking and am a little paranoid.
