Intel Core i5-12400F Temperature Test with Stock Cooler and Cinebench R23
0:00 Default BIOS Settings [65W and 28 seconds]
1:34 Increased BIOS Settings [85W and 40 seconds]
Room temperature was 20 degrees celsius.
The 2 case fans were running.
There were three dry runs before this one.
MAX temps of those runs can be seen @ the start of the video.
Cinebench R23 Results were 11385 pts for the first run and 11939 pts for the second run.
In the first run I used the default BIOS settings.
For the second run I increased the Long Duration Power Limit to 85W and the Long Duration Maintained to 40 seconds.
With a room temp of 20 degrees and a reasonable airflow in the case, 85W Long Duration Power Limit seems to be the limit where the temps stay below 90 degrees Celesius with most cores doing 80++ degrees Celsius.
Gaming temps are not as intense as in this test.
With a better cooler the Long Duration Power Limit could be higher and the CPU [turbo boost] should be @ 4GHZ all of the time. [= app 5% more than the second test]
