First time builder here running orthos and real temp. My question is, as long my max temp stays below 65 degrees celcius am i good? or is it core temp that i should be looking at. And also can someone explain to me how to read orthos? it's a little confusing for me.

does orthos tell what your cpu temps are under load as well?

Orthos is just like Prime95, except for the GUI. Both programs are popular programs used to test a system's stability and are used by OCers for establishing peak load temps (because Orthos makes your CPU work hard doing intense mathematical calculations) and to see if the system is stable.

I'm not familiar with Real Temp, but if it's similar to any number of temp monitoring software (CoreTemp, Everest Ultimate) there is a CPU Temp reading and a Core Temps reading. Core Temps are always hotter, as these are taken from inside the core die(s); most OCers avoid having high Core Temp readings (i.e., above your CPU's thermal specs as given by the chip maker).

If your Core Temp stays below 65 degs C at max CPU load (found by using Small FFTs test in Orthos), then you should be good.

Hope this helps.

right now its mid 40s upper 40s. How long do i have to run orthos for? and where does it say my load temps in orthos i can't seem to find it

Orths cant show temps.

IMO OCCT2 is way better then Prime95/Orthos.

I think most people will say a 12-hour Orthos run means you're stable. But there is no set number. Personally, I say an 8-hour error-free run is usually good. Some people go for 24 hours, but I think it's mostly unnecessary. And Orthos has no temp monitor itself. Your load temps are whatever your temps are in your monitoring program while Orthos is running.

so my load temps are my core temp or max temp while running orthos?

Max Load temps = whatever temps your monitoring software (RealTemp/CoreTemp/Everest) says when running a stress test (to wit, small FFTs on Orthos)

so just run orthos for 8 hours if i pass every test its stable?

here are some temp pics. I'm using real temp because I hear its better with e8400's
