i got a 4670k i5 CPU with coolermaster hyper 212 EVO,
mother board is MSI Z97-G45 Gaming
started overclocking 2 days ago and managed to get 4.4Ghz on 1.224V
i'm using intel burn test on "very high" setting for 10 runs
i get stable with mid 80C temps
AIDA64 gives me 55-60C temps
both under full load ofc
after 2 days nothing, no crash no nothing, worked like a charm
BUT today when i try 4.5Ghz i "need" 1.280V + for it to be stable, and i get 96C on hottest core(Intel burn test)aida64 is 80C max,
is this even normal?
this is my first time overclocking so that's why i'm asking about the margins.
PS: im only changing the multiplier and cpu core coltage rest are on auto
question is should i try messing with the other bios options? like ring clock and voltage?
dunno anything about that so i'll have to read some guides and stuff if in fact that is the problem
thank you in advance
EDIT 1: I can boot 4.5ghz with v1.231+, but after some time gaming i got BSOD so i added 0.01v after each crash till i got to 1.28v and started stress testing
