should i mess with cache ratio?

misfitkid86 · Mar 1, 2015

hey guy's! i have an intel core i5-4690k running at 4.6ghz at 1.22v under full custom loop water. question is: my core ratio is 39 which i think is stock, should i change this? if so what should i change and will temps spike? just want to know what to do to get the best out of my oc. thanks!

Depends on what you are doing ... certain apps such as image editing suffer with reduced cache ratio. Asus recommends keeping cache within 3 of CPU multiplier.... Im running right now at 46 multiplier 43 cache with temps in the high 50s / low 60s in RoG Real Bench in a water cooled box with twin 780s and the 4770k

ok, i use this almost exlusively for gaming and general surfing, so is it worth it? would temps rise at all? i max out intel xtu at 53c

Try it at 3 less the CPU and see how it goes.

ok cool, should i change anything else? and is xtu good for testing?

I would use RoG Real Bench .... you can pass XTU and then fail on RB, you can also see the effects of the changes by using the benchmark.

ok cool thanks, the only things i don't like about it are i can't get temps and i use an msi board so no auto upload! oh well!

I do all benchmarking testing with HWiNFO .... nuthin else even comes close.
