So I've been out of the loop for quite a while. I've been looking around at my current options for LGA 1155, and it appears I could go 2600K or 3770K for an upgrade, though the latter costs $150-200 or so. Best I can tell, the 2500K is worth like $75 now if I can find a buyer for it. Any thoughts on that, I'm all ears. =)
So my current plan is to add some vcore to this CPU, which has always run @ stock vcore @ 4.2GHz 100% stable (prime95 for days; 4.3GHz would error after 4-8 hours or something). Does anyone know/remember (lol) what are considered safe temps or voltages? I did a few searches but sadly didn't come up with anything definitive, but I didn't check too much. I figure it's probably in it's last legs, so if I can get it up to 4.6GHz or something, I might as well.
For what it's worth, it's got a Thermalright HR-02 Macho on there, so cooling should be solid.
Thanks!
