It all depnds on your mobo, cooler and temps you get
I dont use prime, run a few tests with LinX, then game and use your system.
there is no situation where you PC is at 100% for hour's on end, i had a system running prime for 8hr then when i stopped prime and opened firefox i got a blue screen :D

I am now running 4.8Ghz @ 1.425v i will not be going and higher i am happy with that.
Just been gaming for 1hr and temp on the cores are 52 53 56 57. and now idleing at 30 28 32 32. That will do me just fine.

The one thing i am confused about is HWmonitor was shoing the package drawing 125w but now i enabled turbo and put clock up 0.3Ghz and V core up 0.075 it only draws 75w under load?
 
well a new day brings a new addition to the clocking HEAT and lots of it.

Last night i was maxing out in the low 60's, this morning i decided to stress it a bit just so i know its 100% stable and i just hit 76c, and i am not happy with that. I did think my temps was very low but i just went along with it, all i can think is there was a bug of some sort.

What thermal paste are you running and how old is it? as well, heat slowly kills the thermal paste, i can go up to 100.C before it starts to degrade.

Keep an eye out :D as soon as the thermal paste starts to degrade, it wont stop :D (unless you run very cold :D )

I am using EK stuff and its about 8 days old as i only just got the CPU.
I will buy some better stuff but i am getting a new case soon and didnt want to waist some expensive stuff
 
yer dropped it to 1.65 and still stable so its all good, the only setting on auto now is system agent voltage(VCSSA) what that for?
