Hey guys,
Thought I had a stable overclock (4790k) at 4.7ghz @ 1.29v, did all the right tests for the correct amount of time. Started playing Guild Wars 2, and it froze and restarted so I've dialled the volts to 1.3 (not too concerned the life of the processor, I enjoy building computers so will probably upgrade within a year- year and a half) and dialled the clock back to 4.6ghz.
Anyway, are there any GPU benchmarking tools that will stress the CPU too? Keeping it stable for an hour or two gaming session is basically my idea of stable- I know it will differ from user to user.
On a side note: will DRAM voltage effect the stability of an OC'ed CPU?
