intel i5 4690k

my cpu is running @4.5 ghz voltage 1.265 with 60-70 underload voltage and 40 degrees on idle is this a good voltage ? because some people i saw in the net running in lower voltages but i always see BSOD when i lower my voltage.

Tradesman1 · Jun 18, 2016

Sounds fine, voltage will depend on the individual 4690K some can run at a lower voltage than others

Namz__Hack · Jun 19, 2016

why is that so ? is there anything i would changed in bios ? because i only changed the ratio and voltage

Tradesman1 · Jun 19, 2016

All CPUs in a given model are still individual, they OC differently from each other, it can take different voltages for the same OC, ect..... i.e.

i can overclock to 4.7 but i need more voltage, and more voltage higher temps

Tradesman1 · Jun 19, 2016

Correct, if temps are too high for you drop back down to the 4.5 1.265, which is perfectly fine

Tradesman1 :

but i want more power sir i want more fps on my games. should i overclock my zotac 970? will my nzxt 550W v2 bronze will be enough ?

Tradesman1 · Jun 19, 2016

Then will need to add voltage which will also be more heat, it does just come for free, all CPUs like all other components have their limits on what they can do in a given spot

yea i idle at 44 degrees at 4.5 1.265 voltage is there anything wrong with my liquid cooler? its an 240 aqua changer from lepah should i reapply the thermal paste ?

Tradesman1 · Jun 20, 2016

Might try, I'd think it should be a bit cooler, only need about a grain of rice size amount of thermal compound. and how is the cooler mounted up top with the fans underneath blowing up? If so may put the fans on top of the rad blowing the outside air in over the rad into the case

Tradesman1 :

It's mounted like this should i changed it ? http://

Tradesman1 :

bro i reapply the thermal paste and change the radiator mounting it drop my temps my idle now is at 30c-34c but the problem is i can't stable overclock to 4.7 1.3 voltage ? should i up the voltage ? would it shorten or damage my cpu ?

Tradesman1 · Jun 22, 2016

I'd stick below 1.35 which should be safe, so yes can try a bit more, maybe go up to 1.32, 1.33 etc and monitor temps as you go

Namz__Hack · Jun 23, 2016

Tradesman1 :

Bro i just maintain it to 4.5 GHZ at 1.265 temps idle 34C and underload 60-70C will my NZXT 550W v2 be enough to overclock my zotac gtx 970 too ?

Tradesman1 · Jun 23, 2016

Should be fine, yes

Namz__Hack · Jun 23, 2016

Tradesman1 :

thank you bro you the best!

Tradesman1 · Jun 23, 2016

No worries, let us know how all comes out

Namz__Hack · Jun 24, 2016

Tradesman1 :

bro what kind of case fan should i use for my radiator and chasis ?

Tradesman1 · Jun 24, 2016

The fans with the Aqua changer are pretty good as is and provide good airflow

Namz__Hack · Jun 24, 2016

Tradesman1 :

but its too loud bro, im currently using the nzxt chassis fan for my radiators and it maintains my temps 30-34 on idle 60-70 on underload

Tradesman1 · Jun 24, 2016

I had one brought in that was on the noisy side, used some thin rubber washers between the rad and the fans
