I think when I OCED to 4.5 ghz. it would go up to 77 degrees under a stress test which is okay, but while gaming (playing stuff like TF2) it would hit 70 degrees. That freaked me out a bit since that's pretty high...
4.5 only hitting 77 on a stress test ?
You my friend have a 1% chip, some amazing cooling, a dodgy thermometer or a very sympathetic stress test.
That i5 can easily run at 80 all day without any problems.
