Finally got round to playing around with my i7 today. Seems to be a good overclocker but temps are a little scary:
Crunching away: ![]() That's about a 6-7C increase over stock speed temps. My ambient temp is pretty high though, according to a thermometer I left on the desk 38C ![]() How safe you recon?

![]() i7's run really hot, to me, if you are benching stay under 90ēc on quick runs, anything else 80ēc or less. your temps are fine, you can't push much much more though. |

Good to know. I can go 4.2 on 1.3V (BIOS) but the temps were around 80C crunching which I think is too high. I'll see how it copes in summer but I might either get some water cooling set-up (first time) or clock down a bit.

![]() Got Megahalems with a 1850rpm Gentle Typhoon posted on Your PC ATM Sexy Close-Up. My TRUE's backplate fused with the motherboard, so couldn't use that.. stayed on the Q9550. Moved the Corsair H50 to the Q8400 because temps were not so good inside the HAF. Air coolers just work better for me inside them.

my AMD955 is now at 80%
the stock cooler sucks, Will fix next pay day. the 1055t, I just don't trust the temps(too low), Will try overclock soon.

this just gets stranger and stranger.
last update fixed half of the problem but still four work units waiting to run. temps went to 76c but I don't think that would kill anything.

simple view shows 8 work units.
task manger shows 8 threads. must be a glitch but still I almost had a hissy fit.

Try restarting the manager and runningn the CPU benchmark again. Find that tends so solve most stuff. Worth a try if you haven't already
