Hi all,

Have my 8700K stable (Prime 12Hrs, IBT Max - 10 passes, and RealBench 8Hrs) @ 5GHz 1.315V.

Hottest I've seen is late 80's while stressing.

Most games I get between 48-55oC (Odyssey, RE2, etc) FC - New dawn settles around 63oC.

I know its a well versed question, are these temps OK?

Jon.

Your temps look to be around ~5 degrees lower than mine under the same load scenarios (5ghz with 1.31v IIRC).

My cooler is a CoolerMaster ML240 and the Case is a MetallicGear Neo-G Mini (Itx case with Tempered glass front with ~ inch of clearance for the fans).

I tend to run mine day to day at 4.9Ghz (5Ghz 1-2 core boost) with 1.23-5 voltage. Drops temps noticeably and I can't tell any different in raw performance.

The temp drop is very important and the only intake I have is through the radiator on the front. Running at 5ghz was fine for the CPU but quickly heat soaked by 1080ti.
