Cool, I will run Mafia 3 for a bit to see what kind of temperatures hit. Is there any other way I can test it for gaming without getting a hold of more games lmao? Or even any games you recommend getting to test an overclocked CPU with?
Should/Can I Overclock?

Think I may have a faulty sata lead, Mafia 3 installation taking 40 mins, when I check Task Manager its writing to my SSD at 15mb/s
After googling about it though it seems it could be a problem with that game, a few people have complained about how long it takes to install.

Tested Mafia for a little bit, maximum temperature was 66 degree and average was 55. So temperatures seem safe with overclock.
Only problem is I now should be looking at a new graphics card lol, my outdated one running it on Optimal could only push out 30-45FPS and im pretty sure the optimal was actually LOW lol. Still, 4-5 year old what can you expect lol.

Haha,
Just so you know I ran the 8 hour real bench test on 4.3GHz @ 1.200 w/ Uncore 41 @ 1.190. Max temperatures was 75 degree and average was 58. It successfully passed
So I might try an 8 hour P95 test tonight just to see if thats also stable. Then maybe try tweaking since I have a nice benchmark to go from.
