Hello,
Here is my setup :
Intel core i7 6700k (OC 4.4 ghz)
Asus z170-k motherboard (Current bios)
2 x 8 GB DDR4 G Skill Ripjaws V 2800mhz CL15
I followed a tutorial for overclocking this CPU, here's what I did.
I wanted to apply a slight overclock at 4.4ghz without touching the stock voltage (1.264 in bios).
I applied a manual core voltage of 1.264 and did stress tests, the cpu is perfectly stable, with the vcore reaching 1.280v under load.
Then I went for adaptive mode with these options :
Positive offset sign
Offset voltage : Auto
Additional turbo mode cpu core voltage : 1.280v
Total adaptive mode CPU core voltage : 1.280v
C States enabled, turbo enabled, speedstep enabled.
Then during my tests, the cpu is still perfectly stable, in the BIOS the vcore is now 1.152V, but the only thing that "worries" me is that under load, the vcore reaches 1.264v tops... I read this value on HWMonitor, HWinfo, Aida 64, and CPU-Z. The temps are perfectly fine (60°C with OCCT, with spikes at 68°C with a 22°c room temperature)
I'm worried that this value is incorrect since the vcore reached 1.280v on manual mode, and I read that when you stress tested with adaptive mode, some people had their vcore go very high...
Do I have my overclock right or should I use the offset voltage mode ?
Thanks
