Can't get 2600K over 4.7

Engreeks1 · Jan 2, 2014

Hi there!

I've been googling and googling but can't find a way to get past 4.7GHZ. I would be immensely appreciative of some assistance both increasing my clock speed AND decreasing my max voltages which are running alarmingly high.

- I'm running an Asrock p67 extreme 4 gen3 with a hyper 212 (push only) air cooler.
- My voltages are from 1.424 to 1.448 at 100% load
- My temperatures are at 70-80C at 100% load
I'll post my BIOS settings below:

You have simply reached the limit with your current board and cooler and possibly the CPU.

thanks for the quick response Rolli! Actually in additional testing I've found 4.7 to be unstable and i had to downgrade to 4.6, which looks stable and temps stay in low 70s. How would you go about reducing my vcore? I'm concerned dangerously high based on googling various other forums. Sounds like the general consensus is above 1.4 is bad.

Here are my bios settings btw:

What speed are you running the ram at since I am noticing 1.65 ram voltage? Remember the memory controller is on the CPU and overclocking ram can reduce CPU overclock.
