Hi all,
I have Asus maximus hero mobo with i7 4770k processor and i attempted to overclock.
I have seen intel burn is used to stress and hw monitor to monitor temps. So i got them and went to asus bios. I found an option to auto oc. You can select 4200,4400,4600 clock speed there.
I tried all they are all fine.(win booted no freeze on idle) So i tried to stress 4200 hz with the intel burn.
I have a stock cooler.
I got 100 celsius temps on all cores. I disabled the overclock. I was curious. I still got 100 Celsius on stock speed.
Then i tried my games. I find out my games all fine on 4200 Hz, no freezes smooth everything.
According to Hw monitor temps around 60-70 celsius under load, idle 30-40.
However, according to CpuZ my clock speed is not constant it is changing all the time, like 4200 then 3500 then 800 then 4200 again.
My Questions would be:
1.Is this Asus extreme tweaker utility is reliable? It is really adjust the clock speed (doing what is saying)It is reliable?If i would do manually I would have a different(better) result?
2. This clock speed jumping what i experiencing is throttling? This intended or clock speed should remain the same (if i put it on 4200 Hz it sould stay on it?)
Do i get the same performance all the time?
3. If i run on 4200 Hz (according to CPUz) games (guild wars 2 war thunder,skyrim in stereoscopic 3D)
and i get max 75 Celsius it is considered successful overclock? It is safe?
It is really on that speed?
Any help is appreciated, oveclock gods, help me I am confused....:S
