unable to view site @ home; 4790K 100°C, better stress prog?

First, the reason I'm even posting at all - I'm unable to view the site on my home internet connection, whether on my desktop or my laptop. I get a "403 Forbidden \ nginx/1.4.4" error.

I can access it on my phone's cell data connection, though. I'd really prefer to browse it on my desktop though - it has an i7-4790K, 32GB RAM, etc. And I often will open dozens or even a few hundred tabs at a time (can't do that on my phone with only effectively ~350 MB of RAM, although it's advertised as 1 GB), I hope that isn't an issue considering ...

On the home page (on my phone with wifi turned off) I see a post from January 15, 2016, about something to do with blocking spammers. I guess my IP got caught up in that? How can I re-gain access on my desktop without using a proxy or using the meager 5GB/month of T-Mobile hotspot I may or may not have? (My home ISP is Cox Cable, in the San Diego, CA east county area.)

I'm not sure if I should post it yet, but would having my IP help the admins with the issue? (I know I haven't yet registered here, but maybe there's a way I could share it with the relevant site authorities if necessary?)

The site was working for a few hours on my desktop PC early this morning, but stopped working within the past half hour. Also cpu-upgrade and gpuzoo.com also get the same error - I think they're co-owned, right?


Speaking of the aforementioned 4790K, it hits 100 C immediately on running the Prime95 28.7 small FFT stress test. I have the Hyper 212 Evo cooler on it. In winter with ambient temps around 70 F it runs at 4.1-4.2 GHz, and in summer when it approaches 90 indoors (and often exceeds 100 F outdoors) it throttles to 3.7 GHz.

I have learned on other forums (there's someone on Tom's Hardware that has gone into detail on it) that the newer versions of P95 cook the 22nm Intel chips, something to do with FPU / AVX or something, iirc. I also have v26.6, and that only hovers around 60-65 C at 4.2 GHz.

Testing a few other combos, in v26.6 I get 63-65C at 4.6, 51-53C at 4.0, 44-46C at 3.0, and switching to v28.7 I get 50-52C at 3.0, 60-65 at 3.6, hmm today only 73-76C at 4.0, normally it's 100. It is jumping between 62 and 75, maybe something running in the background is affecting it? Okay, a bump to 4.2 takes it into the mid 90s, and briefly nudging it to 4.5 has it flickering between 3.9 and 4.3 on some cores.

Is there another recommended stability / stress test that'll basically be a "it'll never get hotter than this in real-life situations so if it's stable here it's always stable" situation, without nearly torching the CPU like P95 v28.7 threatens to do? (Mine hasn't died, of course, but I'd rather be safe although I'd like to figure out a moderate OC I could do.)


Lastly, another site question. I'm also wanting to look up some vintage CPUs, release dates, TDP, historical pricing, benchmarks, etc, but where would I go to find info on, say, a 286-10? 486 DX4-120? Pentium II-233? The releases by year section here only goes back to 2004 - is there another place to find that info? (Also the older CPUs aren't on cpubenchmark, another site I use for comparing overall CPU performance.)
