The trouble with Prime95 and Skylake chips was some very specific bug that very specific workloads (a la Prime95) triggered. I thought it had since been fixed?

Well it's good to know I didn't hurt my chip and my OCD can be tamed for now lol

How about that voltage though? Core Temp reads 1.32 but CPUZ reads 1.296

Voltage is fine. I'd trust cpuz.

Coretemp reads some wonky voltages for me.

Awesome. Is coretemp good to use for temps? seems good to me. Using Cinebench R15 to bench currently. Highest score stock 704. OC is 760.

The CPU is mounted with the cooler correctly and tight against the surface, with MX-4 and the sticker removed. I thought the Hyper 212 was good for an OC?

if the board is warping, loosen the cooler up a bit and press down on it and twist it a few times

4.7 was not stable at 1.3v how high can I go with voltage?

Also I RMAd it so I would have 2 chips here, and keep whichever has the better OC ability

Pretty unethical... It works at and clearly beyond it's rated specificiations, so you've got no reason to send it back.

To wish me failure is just mean. I'm 20 years old and been building computers since I was 8. This is my hobby, and I am a sponge sucking up all this information to learn because I enjoy it

No one will get hurt if I RMA a chip I paid for with my hard earned money.

Can we please keep this thread on topic.
finally, now my main question, are you going to open your eyes and look for a better cooler, your chip its perfectly fine, no need to RMA it, you just need to cool down with a better cooler, or you could delid that chip and upgrade fans on your 212 Cooler for better temps,

Regards,
