That was a common issue with me I'm afraid! Didn't like all that haha, much more into my geography!
Okay, opening up all programs again, after a slight windows hiccup

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:07

Yeah, froze and all icons disappeared and popped up, but all good

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:08

Idle Temps,
40 - 38 - 38 - 39

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:08

I suppose it's happened every now and again. Not often though

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:09

I just tried to click everything a bit too quickly

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:15

CPU-Z, Voltage stating 1.224 at idle.
Idle temps as above.

Upon Test - Voltage stays same, as does Core Speed.

After three and a half minute test - Voltage stays the same, 1.224V. Core Speed stays at 4199.02
Temperatures: Maximums - 76 - 80 - 81 - 79

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:27

Running the test, 5 mins in and maxes are 77 - 81 - 82 - 81

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:28

I'll run if I smell smoke!!

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:28

CPU-z still showing everything as normal

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:29

Ever so slightly creeping up at the 7 minute mark now.
79 - 83 - 83 - 82

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:33

Yep, three of them.
Test completed: 10 mins 45 seconds:

Maximum temperatures: 80-84-85-83

Voltage and Core Speed stayed same throughout

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:39

You've gone, shall I panic now or in a minute??

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:40

Okay, i've set that going now

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:41

You might be my favourite Southampton/Exeter Fan

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:45

At three and a half mins into this test voltage jumped to 1.3 something for a tiny moment.
Five mins in, maxes: 67- 68- 69- 68

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 19:47

Oh blimey, got a Fatal Error on Core 4 during the test. "Rounding was 0.5, expected less than 0.4.
Temperatures have not jumped 5 up due to this. I'm stopping the test now as I've got dinner. Will, begin again after and see if the same happens

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 20:20

Okay, will do now

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 20:22

The Dram voltage in auto is 1.650, shouldn't it be turned higher?

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 20:23

Oh wait no amp up voltage down, correct? Is that what you're getting at? I'm sure that's a physics thing that I should know

NathanL · 17 Apr 2017 at 20:30

Not sure, if you did I must have forgotten, but it's set to auto at the mo and that's the value
