    Ivy Bridge Max Temp???

    What is the max that an IB will run at without throttling???

    What does Intel say is max running temp??

    What about a 24/7 safe temp??

    Anyone know these???

    IB uses 3D transistors to get a stronger effect between on and off currents, unfortunately this increased surface area between the gate and channel is more susceptible to the hot carrier effect caused by high voltages and high temperatures. Because of this, IB will be much more susceptible to degradation than previous chips so I would definitely error on the cautious side.

    The effect is from the voltages mostly, but temperatures do allow these carries to move within the dielectric and have more of an effect, although I'm pretty sure that's negligable over the next few years? So if your temps are bad because of the poor heat extraction, I'd say don't worry about it, but if they're bad because you're cranking the voltages, I'd back off a bit. That's why I don't mind running chips hot, but voltages scare me.

    16 hours of studying today as I have a final on this in the morning...

    Sorry that wasn't a very direct answer, but that's the best I can say as I don't know the numbers...


    24 hour prime stable? Please, I'm 24/7/365 WCG stable!

    So you can do Furmark, Can you Grid???

    I've been running 4.4ghz @ 1.225vcore pretty steady. Avg 68~69c with a Corsair H100. Needs better water. I would stay under 1.275vcore and under 75c if you're looking for longevity.
