My final OC results for i5 3570K + Asus P8Z77-V Pro

[Frozenriver]

Final OC results: 4.4GHz peaking @ 1.248V. Under IBT, temperature peaks at 90 degree centigrade on the hottest core.

A little bit too much voltage/temperature maybe. But this is the lowest vcore at which WEI, 3DMark Vantage and 11 runs without crash.

Because IBT and Prime95 have been stable under much lower voltage, I didn't bother to run them extensively.

For normal usage (3D gaming), temperature peaks at 70 degree centigrade.

Ambient temperature is at ~28 degree.

What do you guys think? Comment, please...

Or do you guys have a secret way of letting 3DMark run, while keeping vcore low? Which setting should I change in the bios?

Thanks.
