Hi all,
First time overclocker, managed to get a 4.6 ghz overclock on 6600k with 1.27 V with temperatures on ROG Realbench maxing out at 76C with averages at 65-70C and about 6 degrees cooler on AIDA 64.
Originally I ran it at 1.275V, but decreasing it to 1.27 V seemed to also keep it stable. Should I try to find the lowest voltage I can get to run a stable overclock? Or is it fine as is. Also, manual voltage mode allows for voltages to drop at idle, is this normal? Reading guides and all are saying I should switch to adaptive mode after I've found a stable voltage through manual mode.
Thanks in advance for any help and answers! Have a good day.
