Have a 6700K and a MAXIMUS VIII HERO cooled by a Noctua NH-D15S (with second fan) and MX-4. Case is a Corsair Air 540 with 5x Fractal Design HF-14. Using 2x16GB G.Skill TridentZ DDR4-3200 Cas 14 (1.35V).
I initially tried 1.325v in manual mode (with an LLC setting of 6), FCLK set to 1000, and RAM set to XMP settings, but the system locked up after about 10 minutes of Prime95 blend mode. Raised the voltage to 1.34 and the same stress test started hitting 80C, it mostly hovered in the low 70's but it spent enough time around 79-80 to make me nervous enough to call it quits after about 30 minutes.
Temps are a lot lower in AIDA64 with a max of 74C. I was going to try x264 as a middle ground but I've had trouble getting it working (says I don't have AviSynth 260 installed even though I do). However, I've been using P95 for probably 15 years so it's always kind of been the standard I shoot for.
Is this about normal or do I need to try reseating the HSF?
