![]() You need to machine the IHS and add thermal couples in order to measure Tcase. Tcase is listed as 64☌ but remember this isn't the temperature that is reported when using a utility, it's the temp of the heat spreader which will always be cooler than the reported temp. 80☌ is when Intel would normally start thermal throttling so I'm gonna say your temps are more than safe. Since I don't get that hot in normal work loads I don't see an issue. My temps are basically the exact same as yours, if I use Prime95 it goes up to 80☌ but I haven't had any thermal crashes yet. You only need to mess with the voltage once you start getting crashes but still want to increase the clock speed. I didn't touch the voltages specifically but there's a "+ offest" I turned on and it's been working fine. We have been extremely lucky with ours achieving 4700Mhz at v1. Every chip is different, overclocking results may vary, but if your chip is capable of 4500MHz under 1.300v Vcore then you are lucky. Use RealTemp to monitor your Core temperature. I used the bios to overclock, kept the base at 100mhz and set the multiplier to 4.5 so I get 4.5ghz on all cores. Run Intel XTU and setup stress test for at least 5 hours. I also have a 6600k and a 212 Evo, along have a z170a motherboard from Asus.
