That is ashame Partrick, what Vcore were you running for 4.7ghz?
Unlucky Patrick, 2 cards is still plenty enough though mate One of the lads i game with just bought 2 EVGA 780's with water blocks and had to sit looking at them for over a week as he didn't have time to drain his loop n wot not. They probably started to rust from all the druel :)
My cpu been running pretty good at 3.4 oc for the past months but lately it's been kind of warm but then again it's like 90-100F outside. Should I worry that my cpu hits a little above 60c sometimes when under stress? My cpu idle is around 44-46c avg though according to hwinfo64. I'm thinking it's probably ok but would like to reassure myself, seeing what you guys think since a lot of you here are big time overclockers. If so I might clock it down or set it to stock clocks.
If you are using Prime95, AIDA64 or some other stress testing software and you max out at 60*C you are good to go.
Well prime 95 runs a tad hot, 73c max sits mainly at 68-70c but in games it's around 59c or so. Though I have no air-conditioning on in the house and only a fan next to me while i'm on the pc and it's 101F outside in my area.
That's fine for Prime95.
