Hello,
I am able to get 4.4 ghz on 1.25 Vcore stable. My average temp running prime95 68C and the max is 81C. Is 1.25 volts alot or should i just aim for a 4.2 ghz overclock? I want my processor to last at least 5 years. Also, if I reduced the speed of my ram, would i be able to lower the Vcore? I currently run 4x4 ram in 2400 mhz cas10

Hmmm, very thorough xD Good idea, well, if you follow that guide I'm sure you might be able to push the chip another .25v like some have managed, but, I'd stay were you are with your temps and how stable it is, plus it's under a H100i which is pretty nice, but it's not going to be like Noctua air or X60 Kraken or a custom loop, and even those two stocks and pre-builts wont get you much further.

So short of a custom loop that looks like a pretty nice OC.

What cooler are you running? What are your temps? What motherboard? Case? Fans? Ambient room temperatures?
