Hows my CPU?

[JamieLee3k]

I have just upgraded my PC and I got a i5-8600k and I managed to overclock it to 5GHz @ 1.27vcore, Is this normal as a few people I spoke with and youtube videos I watched all have much higher vcores?

I have found it very stable and with my Noctua DH-15S and also my temps are idleing @ 32c

I ran a test on prime95 for over an hour and it never went over 89c but that was core 2, all the other cores got no higher than 86c

Have you done stress tests? Try OCCT for stability testing.

What is OCCT? and where can i get it from?

I have ran OCCT for 2 hours at 5GHz @1.300 Vcore without any errors and the temps are:

• Core 1 - 74c
• Core 2 - 81c
• Core 3 - 83c
• Core 4 - 80c
• Core 5 - 79c
• Core 6 - 82c
