This is my first post on this forum, so if this is in the wrong spot (I don't think it is) then please bare with me.
System Specs:
Intel 4670k
NZXT Phantom 410
Corsair CX600
ASRock Extreme 4 Z87 mobo
Corsair H100i
EVGA GeForce GTX 660 SC
8GB G.Skill Trident X F3-2400C10D-8GTX
So it would seem that I have gotten a stable OC of 4.5ghz @ 1.225v on my chip. It went through 20 passes on IBT on maximum (max temp of 88C, but averaged around 80-82C) and it has gone through 9 hours of AIDA64 (max temp of 75C but averaged around 60C).
This is with the RAM clocked at 2400mhz, so I know I'm overclocking the memory controller. So I guess my question is, if I were to lower the RAM frequency to something closer to 1600-1866mhz and just tighten the timings a bit, do you think I would be able to squeeze a little bit more out of my processors clock speed?
I'm happy with these temps, but I wouldn't really want to go any higher, but I do know with the memory controller OC'd, that would be adding more heat.
I had tried 4.6ghz at 1.25v but was getting closer to 95C in IBT so I lowered the voltage to 1.225 and that helped with the temp, but got a BSOD in IBT at 4.6ghz and 1.225v.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advanced for any help I may receive.
