I have a i6600k and was following a guide on overclocking.
It said first step to go to 4.4 ghz + vcore of 1.35 then adjust according to stability tests upwards of 0.05 to 0.1.
I tested my system on prime for 20 minutes, at 1.35, it automatically has 3 of 4 workers stop.
At 1.36 it works fine for 20 minutes.
I then left it there for a bit, temps were about 84 max with a hyper evo.
Then, I thought that was too high, so I found another guide and it said start at 1.30 vcore.
I did that, and I was stable with 20 minutes of prime95, and did an overnight test and it was stable.
Does that make sense?
Is it possible that the higher vcore was unstable?
1.3v okay
1.35v not okay
1.36 okay
Is it possible that I just did the tests wrong, or might be memory related?
