Gigabyte h55m-ud2h
I7 870
X2 4gb generic samsung ram 1333
Psu is from coolermaster
Issue: cpu vcore is 1.4v when everything is on stock. Even if i bump up the bclk it boots and says it failed to boot, the same result when i manually reduce the vcore. Ive been fiddling with the settings and to no avail i turn to the experts here.
Story:
It is my younger brothers pc. He had x4 2gb ram a total of 8gb which was 1066(i think) in his system. I gave him x2 4gb ram as a gift so he can later upgrade it if he wants to.
Ive recently noticed that the pc was running stupidly hot so i opened up hw monitor to seewhat was up. The cpu was at 89c on boot and slowly reduced itself to 69c (this is just idle, on load it hits 95c. I opened the pc up re thermal pasted it and found that it was still hot. I later found out that the vcore was 1.4v so i underclocked it to 1.15v it worked and i got a bit greedy and upped the bclk. Everything worked it booted ran unigine valley, ran aida 64 stress test and everything. I turned it off and turned it back on to remove all the benchmarks and software i downloaded as it would be bloatware for my younger brother, to only find an error message that a overclocking caused a issue in the boot. I set everything to default booted up and it was 1.4v again. So i underclocked it from 1.15 to 1.3 to no avail.
Ive been fiddling with this pc for 3hrs and its 3am in the morning im lost for words and am even questioning my own memory if i did indeed get a 1.15v and stable system
I need answers is the cpu or mobo dying? Is it the new ram thats doing this to the pc? Ive read that some softwares can cause issues similar to this but didnt find anything suspicious in the program list in control panel.
Best regards.
