i7 safe temp ?

[oggie]

Whats highest safe temp when running 95prime cpu test (top one) ??

[Splave]

cores will throttle back off at 100c, I wouldnt want to be over mid 80s on air 24.7

Something like this? :D

Bobbylite is right. Keep distance to TJMax >20 and enjoy your CPU.

Was thinking the heat would impare your stability before it damages the processor but obviously that is not the case LOL!

Hehe no, I had a bad waterblock mount due to a design overlook in the mounting kit for 1336 and the fuzion v1...I primed for 5 hours before realizing the cpu was at 105c...

No errors though :P

Haha, that is THE highest temps that I've need read on a cpu that was still alive.

Good show!

I bet you could fry a couple 16oz steaks on that thing....nice, free heater for the winter too. :D

I would´nt exceed 75°C for 24/7 use under water.

Dam that temp is crazy :eek::p: Well I was priming on my current rig and it got to 76C under load....guess thats safe but not gonna push any more till get the cpu on 120.3

110C on hot summer days on Linkpack...
I'm not sure what the consensus on safe in terms of physically not damaging the chip, but paranoia starts to kick in for me at 70C.

[oggie]

Yeap 70C is when i start to worry...

[Movieman]

65C is the max I'd run an i7 at..
Nothing to back that up except common sense.

Sorry I don't see the relevence the OP was max temps i7 you've posted pictures of a core2, you have any AMD shots?

[burebista]

Relevance is simple. Same TJMax and same paranoid peoples about CPU temps. :D
It was a sort of joke (smilie at the end) and after that screenshot I said what I consider safe 24/7.
