I didn't realize that anything over 2400mhz for ram speed requires an increase to the CPU Strap to 125 and the BCLK to 125. My BIOS, unbeknownst to me at the time, did that when I hit XMP 2666mhz. So, thinking everything was normal, I played BF4 for a couple hours or so, and I checked my temps mid-game to see where they were at and I realized that I was hitting 4.0ghz when it should be 3.6 for turbo boost. I freaked, but then I saw the CPU strap on realtemp was at 125, so I calmed down because I figured out why it was clocked higher, but I didnt get a BSOD or anything.
if I didn't check my temps I would have never of known. CPU-Z says my core voltage is 1.200.
Is my voltage alright, along with this mild oc? My temps barely hit 55 when under load. Mind you this was all automatic when i hit xmp. I don't OC anything.
