Hey all,
It's been years since I dabbled in the arts overclocking and having bought my 3770K 2 years ago thought it was time to "pop it's cherry" so to speak.
Embarrassingly, I couldn't even recall the proper way to go about it so I just bumped up the multiplier to 40x and the core voltage to 1.125v which was an effective 500mz gain.
I just put this thing through a few benchmarks and intensive games and the peak temp is at 53c on Air. This seems pretty legit to me atm, so since I kinda lucked out by not blowing up my CPU, what would be the better, more efficient way to get this chip higher ?
This is the first time I have Overclocked this chip, so I got no idea what it can do.
*waits for a popping sound to come from tower*
