1.210v safe for 4.4 ghz on i5 4690k?

GhostPyro · Jan 25, 2017

i had overclocked my i5 4690k a few months back with 4.3 at 1.2 volts but it blue screened so i went down to 4.1 at 1.120v. i felt daring today and i overclocked it to 4.4 ghz with 1.210v. is this too much, or enough? in idle its sitting around 39-47 degrees and goes to 57 at load

ran gta 5 and didnt last a few seconds before it blue screened

how come others can overclock to 4.5 on 1.2v and i can barely run 4.3 on the same voltage?

I would say not enough voltage then.

Haswell is good for about 1.3 volts for everyday use. 1.35 volt max with excellent cooling.

57C is pretty cool, you can take up to 75C or so.

GhostPyro :

Every CPU is a little different. My i7-4770k can just get to 4.3Ghz at 1.29 volts.

The problem is you didn't test it, run Prime 95 or AIDA64 for 30 mins to see if the overclock is stable.

bumped the oc down to 4.3 on 1.210v seems ok, havent bluescreened yet but i seem to be getting lower frames than i did with 4.1 ghz and i am stuttering a bit on gta 5, does this mean the oc is unstable?

Can you please read my previous reply?

Agreed. You need to do some stability testing before jumping in a game. You'll want to see the various temperatures and voltages as it is running under a high load.
