Hi. I just began to overclock my 3770k and i reaced a max temp around 80c after 20 min at full load in Prime95 is that okay or is it to high??
 
What did you OC to to and what voltage did you use?

80C max is OK but if you're overclocking with the stock cooler definitely consider buying aftermarket cooling instead.
 
Reduce your voltage a bit and see if you can retain that 44x multiplier with a lower voltage.
 
and is it prime 95 with avx what you are using..??/
either way its still to high.

oke this is not a 3770k.
but i,m pleased with it.

now i,m instead of 1.270 on 1.255 vcore and now problems so far with prime95 with avx.

A 3770k is going to run ~10c hotter with the same settings as a 3570k.

It is probably high on the voltage for a 3770k at 4.4, I would try 1.25v and check for stability. That will drop temps a good 5-10c if you can run that voltage.

My 4770k runs 4.4ghz at 1.23v, and thats about average. Temps top out around 75c with a coolit eco-120 cooler (similar to an H60). Ivy and Haswell run pretty similar temps.

sorry but the temps for haswell and ivy are not similar, yes maybe at stock but whith a overclock not.
and with what is every body testing.
dont use prime95 but use linx with avx for at least 4 hourse.

i used the pea method.

The size of a pea is way too much. But if you're simply saying that you put the TIM in the center and use the heatsink to spread it, then yes that is the correct method. But pea size is too much, it's more like a 1/2 pea.

Hmm well I've owned a 3570k, 3770k, 4670k, and a 4770k. The 4770k may run just a few degrees warmer than a 3770k but it's barely notable and nothing drastic thats for sure. I really didn't even notive a difference at all between the 3570k and 4670k in temps.

My guess is all the reviews that show temps are while the CPU is running on the onboard graphics. haswell's onboard graphics consume more than Ivy's because of the increase in performance. It's also the reason that haswell went back to 84w TDP instead of Ivy's 77w. However, without using onboard GFX, the chips are essentially the same.

yes i used that method for the tim, a small drop in to the center.
sorry i have now the 3570k, and a friend of mine has the 4670k.
both are overclockt to 4.5 and both are using the h110.
yes both mounthes are good.
he has les vcore then my and the settings in the bios are not that much different, with llc for the rest everithing is auto, his runs almost 10 degrees warmer in linx with avx.

i,m not using the prime95 and if i do i run prime95 with avx also.
 
He may have used the stock thermal paste or atleast paste thats not as good, he may have put too much paste on or not enough or just a bad method, his ambient temperature may be higher, his case may not have as good of ventilation. etc. MANY factors in temperatures when your talking completely different houses and case.
 
i know but we have the same systems, and we used gelid extreme as tim.
the only differents is he has haswell and i have ivy.
he lifses 2 doors away from me so i dont think the ambient temp is much different with te weather we have here in holland now.
and believe me from both systems the tim is not to much ore to little, and still 10 defrees warmer his haswell, not on stock but clocked both to 4.5. thats why i still stay with ivy, and my cpu.
also i have a verry good cpu.
 
I have not noticed that drastic of temp change. I saw more of a difference from sandy to Ivy than Ivy to haswell.

No doubt the 3570k is a great CPU. Most of the reason I switched was because first I got a great deal on the CPU and board combo (UD4H and 4670k, sold the 4670k and bought a 4770k), and second the Z87 chipset supports RAID on 6 ports instead of just 2 ports of sata3.
 
thats true only for the bord it let me think, but then this 3570k came free from the same friend that has now haswell and really this is a top cpu, it is totally stable at 5.1 and benches under 5.3 but not now with the weather its really hot now. and i,m using a h110 so in the winter i can bench again
the vcore i use at 5.3 is 1.42 vcore with llc at verry high.
 
Thats a pretty golden chip, definitely outside the normal range. The average chips takes 1.30 to run 4.5ghz. Mine took 1.35 for 4.6ghz, so fairly average and it was my daily OC.
