Temps ok for a H70 setup ?

If prime bluescreens with anything lower then 1.25v set in the bios, but is stable with it set at 1.25v, then leave it at 1.25v.

The temps are fine, the idle is'nt brilliant but its not the worst iv seen either, the load temps are spot on for that cooler, so again no need to worry.

For comparison i idle in the mid 30's, and load up low to mid 60's, but i am on custom water, which is a lot better then the H70, and as you can see my idle is'nt spectacular, so no need to worry.

Set the bios volts to what u know to be stable, leave it at that, regardless of what cpu-z reads it at, aslong as its stable there is no need to worry.

cheers mate I was thinking simlar as its all working with 1.25v and since I have enabled C1 state etc my temps idle are around 38c now
 
The advise you have been given so far is pretty good.

Now go inot your bios and make sure that you have enabled all the CPU settings. Then have a look at the CPU-z again.

Now remember if you do not see your actual frequency drop along with the multiplier of the CPU then your system is using the CPU and therefore the vcore will be at what was set.

That leads us to the vcore quite nicely. What you set in bios does not mean that is what will actually be applied. There is a difference between what is set and what is recorded and what is actually being supplied. The only true reference of voltage is to use a multimeter to measure it. And in this instance it is not needed.


The most important stability test is to use your PC playing the game that stresses your system the most or the game that you like the most. Prime is good but it is not the be all and end all. I use it too, but the final test is does my system do what I want it to do. If it does then my system is stable. If it does not then of course my system is not stable.
 
Those temps are grand, nice low voltage as well. I wouldnt worry about the idle temps tbh, mine idles in the low - mid 30's, loads at 64c on the highest core, air cooled in a pretty cold room. Heats up a fair bit though during the summer.

Yes thanks everyone for all your advice.


I have done another 30 min prime with the new bios settings this is what I am getting now

Air cooled though , Im using an H70 watercooling solution
 
Looking good, that looks like a pretty good chip youve got.

EDIT:Yep, the H50/H70 are generally on a par with high end air cooling.
 
:D, yep, radiator in this room is broke, to skint to get it fixed though:o. Saying that though, in summer time it gets to hot, cpu temps start to edge over 80c under heavy load.
 
One day i really should just for a laugh, see what load temps i get with my room being freezing, but i do enjoy my heating in winter abit to much, so im glad im on water, same temps all year round :D

So i may test it one day, but id have to get wrapped up warm first, window open, no heating on = id freeze, but comp would love it though haha.
