I don't think so. unless you had some crazy voltage it's probably okay. What kind of cooling solution are you using?
Those seem like normal temps, my brothers was almost exactly the same way with stock cooling, when idle/playing a game when his room was about 30-35 Celsius.Originally Posted by mhugh003
Thanks everyone that's good to hear!
It's all stock (cooler and bios settings on the UD4H) so I think I just shouldn't be stress testing it.
It idles around 35-39c and hits max 69c when I'm gaming so I figured the cooler was seated correctly but maybe not. I'll give it a check tonight.
Thanks again everyone for the help!
You could say that about IBT or something but prime95 is an actual program and not just a stress test. Stock processor cooling solutions have always been enough to prevent throttling in any work load as long as the ambient temps weren't unrealistically high.
A CPU should ship with a cooler capable of controlling temperatures at stock frequencies at full out maximum loading or not include any cooler at all.
