Hi folks,
So, as the title says, Im getting a new 1070 graphics card an i've been reading some things about how the CPU is bottlenecking the GPU on the older i5 processors.
I have a 3570k, MSI z77g45 mobo, and a hyper 212 i'm trying to overclock it to get a little more life out of it (even if it doesn't bottleneck my GPU, I still want to overclock it.)
So, basically what's happening is that as soon as I load up prime 95 and choose the "small fft", within a few seconds my CPU hits about 70 in core temp and it drops my frequency from 4.4ghz to 4ghz and I can leave it run and it wont get past about 75 and jumps between 3.8 and 4ghz.
How do I achieve a faster OC? I've read that these CPU's can run into the high 80's under load and still be considered totally fine, so how do I keep it from throttling back?
