However, i'd run prime longer than an hour. IntelBurn test is better for quick checks.

Sure if load stays under 65-70C
Idle means squat honestly, loads key.

If your idling at 50C you've got a problem.
Chances are your pushing too much voltage through the chip, or your heatsink just can't keep up.
