So I did 20 hours of prime, the max temperature on any core during this time was 62ºC (according to Core Temp) Intel I7 920 D0 (2.67 Ghz) 3.8Ghz // 1.171 Vcore 20 hours roughly means that it will hold stable?, Should I be satisfied and leave it as is?

i'll run prime overnight tonight to get a more valid test of stability, but it seems fine so far.

So, amateur overclocked it to 3.8ghz in one go, while keeping the same lower vcore I had set it to, (1.18v), downloaded prime which I read I should check with, didn't have any problems after 3 hours of that, and 3 hours of playing 'Witcher 2'. Temperatures remain unchanged from stock speed...

Dialed it down another 0.4v Load: 55ºC~ What voltages would be considered unsafe for this kind of thing? or should I just leave it alone?

I dialed my CPU Voltage down 0.5v Updated Temps: Idle: 35ºC~ Load: 57ºC~

So I re-seated the cpu/new TIM. Old Temps: Idle: 40ºC~ Load: 75ºC~ New Temps: IDle: 35ºC~ Load: 65ºC~

Ambient temperatures were listed here earlier in the thread, unless these are not the 'ambient temperatures'?

Also, should I consider turning Hyper-threading off? 2 minute picture of the airflow in my rig for reference:

I see, how is it people get the i7 to speeds like 4.0ghz+ on the stock cooler if I have such temps on definitely not stock cooling? These are my temperatures from Everest. (You asked what my ambient temperatures are) Motherboard 30 °C (86 °F) CPU 31 °C (88 °F) CPU #1 / Core #1 43 °C...

Arctic Silver 5, and I had been thinking the problem may be the seating/TIM, the rig has been moved several times since it's construction, so 40/75ºC are abnormal temperatures for this set-up?
