[Q] 3570k 4.4ghz temps

[mercinator16]

Hello,
I just recently got a 3570k and overclocked it to 4.4ghz at 1.29v, i was wondering if idle temps of 35C and load temps on prime95 at 75C are good, I have a hyper 212 evo and my ambient temp is 30C.

Seems about right to me. Wouldn't be concerned with those temps, but if you wanted to push further than 4.4Ghz I advise you look into upgrading your cooling.

Actually that does seem a bit high for 4.4Ghz while only using Prime95. But maybe I'm expecting too much from the Hyper212 Evo. I know with my air cooler at 4.4Ghz I don't even touch the 70's. It's more like 67-68. But my cooler is a bit better. So I think your alright. You can probably even go to 4.5Ghz without too much higher temps. 4.5Ghz normally takes 1.30 to 1.32 Vcore.

Think you're good. I idle at ~30C and get as high as 65C under prime95 at 20C ambient (assuming you mean room temperature - I would die at 30C room temp...).
