![]() ![]() No one can get an accurate indication of thermal performance by using software that runs a fluctuating workload that looks like a bad day on the stock market. The Small FFTs test is a steady-state workload, which is perfect for checking thermal performance. ![]() If AVX test selections are not disabled, then Prime95 is a brutal 130% workload which WILL overload your CPU. For those who do a little research rather than rely on hearsay, this is, and has been, common knowledge for many years. The correct way to run Prime95 is with all AVX test selections disabled, which makes it a perfect 100% workload. This is why "AVX Offsets" are provided in BIOS, which "downclocks" the processor to reduce Power consumption and maintain reasonable Core temperatures. In terms of workload, AVX, AVX2 and AVX-512 Instruction Sets can have a HUGE impact on Power consumption. Respectfully, Core temperatures are the result of Power consumption (Watts) which is driven by Core voltage, Core frequency and software workload. ![]()
