So I am looking to overclock my 4790k. Right now I have it at 4.6 ghz an 1.222v. Ran aidia64 for about 40 minutes no crash. So tested in games an with cinebench. It seems to be stable. But not sure about my Temps an everything else heres a picture of the temps. Which reading should I be monitoring. Any help would be appreciated!

All seems good, temps are a bit high for my liking... have you tried lowering the voltages? maybe try increasing it to 4.7Ghz at the same voltage and see if its stable

what cooler are you using?

An I'll check out real temp. An I know the tcase is 74 I believe so which temp should I monitor to not reach that. An I'll try 4.7. when I changed it to 4.7 the input voltage went to 1.900v but the core still is 1.222v I'm wondering if I should set the input voltage to fixed at a middle ground of 1.850v? It failed at 4.7 with the same voltage I'm wondering should I bump that up to 1.242v. When it was running turbo stock it was using 1.279v at 4.4 so did I get lucky or am I doing something wrong!
