Hello everyone,
I believe I asked this before but I needed some security and clarification. So I bought a Noctua NH-D14 about a couple months ago and replaced a Corsair H100i. I was crossed between picking up either the Corsair H100i or the Noctua NH-D14. I decided to keep the Noctua NH-D14 as I felt it would be better in the long run and not having to worry about water leaks or any malfunctions with pumps. Only thing I would need to worry about are the fans.
Anyways, long story short; I've been overclocking my computer every here and there and always fiddling with settings. I ended up putting everything back to stock but temps were almost the same, most likely cause the auto voltage was the same if not higher with the stock clock speeds as my current overclock. So currently I have my PC overclocked to 4.4GHz. My idle temps are around 35-40c for the 4 cores and under load for games as what it shows on HWmonitor (100% CPU usage) my temps get to about 60c. I've seen 1 or 2 cores hit maybe 61-62c but nothing above that. Can I get your insight/knowledge on my overclock. The only thing I did to overclock my PC was put it at 44 across all the 4 cores and then change the voltage to manual and put in 1.19. The highest voltage I've seen my PC go under HWmonitor is a bit over 1.2v. I just don't remember the exact numbers. And my ambient temps are around 78f+. I sometimes don't turn on the AC and its been hot in my apartment here in California. Below is my specs:
Motherboard: ASUS P8Z77V-PRO
CPU: I5 3570K OVERCLOCKED TO 4.4GHZ (1.19v)
Cooler: Noctua NH-D14
Memory: Corsair Vengeance 16GB 1866MHz 9-10-9-27
Video Card: PNY Nvidia GTX 770 2gb Factory OC
Case: Thermaltake Core V71
Power Supply: Thermaltake Toughpower 1200W
Hard Drives: PNY 256 GB XLR8 PRO SSD
Crucial MX100 512 GB SSD
