Hello guys, I have a quick question for you. I am currently running a 4790k i7 processor and I've noticed that I hit 79C with a custom air cooler, while playing Crysis 3. Everything is set on max and I've noticed that my vcore volts jump up to 1.4 or above, and that is high for stock settings, that is why I want to decrease the voltage, since the mobo's bios is not fully optimized for the K series (I rather not flash the BIOS, just for new voltage settings, set by the manufacturer).
So does anyone here have this CPU and has decreased the Vcore voltage? Would you share your stable voltage, at which you could still keep the 4.4GHz boost. Currently under no load (but on high performance setting in the Windows control panel) it's: 1.308V @ 4.4GHz, but I've read you could push it to 1.155V @ 4.4GHz. I have no idea if this is good for this particular CPU, or if possible.
Thank you
