I built this system last year.On stock speeds it idled at 30C / LOAD 42C.I wanted to do a small overclock,so I decided to just raise the multiplier in the bios.The only other settings I changed manually was my ram speed and timings.I raised the multiplier to 17.5, so the overclock is 3.5GHz.I used the Stability test in amd overdrive,and with all cores at 100% it never went above 44C.The test was weird it did not say pass or fail.I ran it for 1 hour,and only indicated start and stop.I did not understand the chart for min and max.
@ 3.5GHz i it idles at 32C/load 42-44C.
My concern is the core voltage for the cpu.It is set on auto in the bios,and CPU-Z is reading 1.456.Based on my temps I'm happy,but should I be concerned with the voltage.
Here are my specs.
