Hi
I have just built the computer in my sig.
I have overclocked the first 6 cores to 4.7 and the other 6 are at 4.5.
When playing flight simulator, temperatures are hitting 95-100 degrees. I have a be quiet! silent loop 280mm.
With my 5820K at 4.7, temps are around 80 degrees.
What I want know is it safe to run at those temperatures?
Thanks
 
Nope it's not delided?? Whatever that is?
According to one of the monitoring programs I use it's pulling over 275 W.
I've increased the throttling point in the bios to 103 degrees but I really don't know how safe it is for 24/7 usage.
 
Ok Thanks for the helpful replies.
I will order the de lidding tool from ocuk and some Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut.
Only problem is the tool is almost £80 for something I will use only once.
I think I will just dial down the overclock to 4.5 for the first 6 cores and 4.3 for the other 6 for the time being.
