Hi

Attempting to overclock a 4770k to something like 4.2Ghz which i think isnt to bad since the turbo is 3.9Ghz

First i tried it in bios and it didnt change...
Then i used Asrocks A-tuning utility, i changed the multiplyer to x42 and bluescreened in seconds
I then tried the performance mode auto tuning, got to 4.3 Ghz and blue screened

so i did performance auto tuning again and stopped it at 4.2 Ghz, ran prime95 for 10 mins and it bluescreened

Im very worried about damaging my cpu, but would love to get more performance while gaming

Temps are not a problem, Max 60c using h100i on load

OK i changed my vcore to 1.25 in bios as FIXED MODE, i booted into windows and ran CPU-Z and it says my running vcore is 1.332

I dont want to put load on the cpu if thats wrong
