I am overclocking my i5-3570K for the first time with an H105. I tried 4.3 GHz and it came out stable after 12 hours of AIDA, IBT, and Linx. But when I move the core clock up to 4.4, it lowers the speed of the processor when the usage hits 100%.
I tried to set the voltage manually to 1.290 but it still lowers itself. I have an MSI Z77A-G45 motherboard and have disabled all of the power saving features like Intel C-State and Turbo Boost. If there are any other settings that I might have forgotten to turn off, go ahead and tell me.
Here is an image of XTU Monitoring my CPU while running IBT. When running the test, it never throttles because my temps are always lower than 70C at full load.
Any help would be appreciated and thanks!
EDIT: I also have a NEW EVGA Supernova 750G2 power supply and only my 7870 plugged in. I should have more than enough wattage for this overclock and don't see a problem with it.
