Update: since I wrote that article, there has been a BIOS update, and the 4.2GHz present works very well, with one modification: it works just as well with LLC set to Level 3, rather than 1. The actual values used by the preset profile are impossible to type in, so I think it might be a lucky hit with some arguments put into the wrong parameters.

read your link, good info. i think i will have some questions here in the next day or so when i am in front of my main rig again.
i have a stellar clocking 4670k, but i really would like to run it with adaptive and a more moderate overclock so it will lower vcore when its idle or not needed to be running full tilt. i need to check my override voltage, and when i do maybe you can lead me in the right direction as to where to set my adaptive vcore so the actual applied vcore will not be more than necessary for my desired clock (4.2ghz is plenty enough for anything/everything i do, even though my chip will hit 4.7/4.8 "relatively" easily with decent temps. thanks for the write up.
