as far as voltage, why can't I hit 4.6 with any less than like 1.34v? is it because im running a asrock pro4 with *** VRM? my cooler (H60) is also a POS...so what would be the best bet for me to be ablet o get past 4.5ghz @ 1.28v? my max temps when running ITB on very high are 85C when the TDP jumps up to like over 200watts for a split second. other than that they're in the high 50's to low 60s under load. seems like im at a wall, but im wondering how the heck to break it down.

Your temps can't be right? To low for full load @4.6 with an H60...

And yes you either got a not-so-great chip, or your mobo is limiting you.

I am sure he can drop a few fractions of Vs though.
February 5, 2013 7:13:47 AM

Im at 4.5...i said im trying to get 4.6... and actually yeah nm on VERY HIGH the TDP stays way up for a long time so my temps stay at the 74-87C range depending on what core we're talking about.. i was giving the temps on the STANDARD stress level. oops. on HIGH, the temp average of my last 15 pass run was 88C (4.5ghz)

That is uncomfortably high. When you look at temps, look at "package" temps, not just a single core.
February 5, 2013 7:43:12 AM

yeah i know it is. i did this by using core temp, taking the max value of each core after a 15 pass run on HIGH stress setting, and averaging it.

Here is mine. I havent had time to prove stabilit to you guy yet. But i've been playing with my I7 2600K. I had it a 5.2ghz last nite with a vcore of 1.55v.

Here is an image of CPU-Z with proof and a link to my 3DMark test. Proving it's stable enough to pass 3DMarks physics test. Maybe tonight i will validate it and make it stable.

Hell if i'm in a good mood i may try 3.5ghz :D

Thanks saint. I'll have a look now....

Sorry guys im not trying to spam your thread. I was at work and posting using images i made last night. So i made a bit of a mess of it. And didnt include things the OP required.

I've just had another go, this time i included CPU-Z validation. AFAIK this is atleast enough evidence to be classed as "unstable". I did try an intel burn test, but my PC crashed about halway through the 3rd run, so i'll play with the voltages later and see if i can't make it more stable.

For now here's my I7 2600k @ 5.2GHZ. My spcs are:

I recently helped my brother put together a new pc:

i5 3750k
212+ evo
ASRock extreme4
ballistix sport 8 gb 1600/9

We initially tried only changing the core voltage to 1.150 and clock speed to 4.4ghz. It passed 10-15 minutes of prime95 (blend). Windows then failed to boot after installing some software, so we bumped it to 1.2. It passed close to 20 hours of prime95 blend with temps peaking in the low 80s. However, my brother just informed me that he received a BSOD shortly after boot after hooking up an additional monitor.

It seems that prime95 testing is of little use. Since we are not using offset, the voltages should be staying at 1.2 afaik. Could it have something to do with leaving speedstep/sleep states on auto? For now, we moved the vcore to 1.250 and have not even tried prime95 testing. Going to see if he has any more problems under normal usage.

Thanks for any input.

The problem might actually be the video card. I know that on my desktop, after I hooked up an extra monitor to my 7770, memory clock stayed high, temperatures increased, and it would also crash and recover sometimes. As soon as I decreased my VCCIO back to 1050 (had it at 1100), it stopped crashing. Maybe it has something to do with this, no idea. What are your other voltages set at? On X79 chipset, increasing VSA and decreasing VCCIO often solve the problem.

Hi guys, I have a 3570k and I'm wondering about overclocking. My usual temps are 80 degrees F idle and 100F load. My case is a very effective cm storm scout :)  if I were to overclock, what would be a good starting point? My mobo has a auto clock of 3.9ish ghz when possible if that helps.

Manual OC, ALWAYS.

Usually the auto software stuff sets your voltage a bit too high.

First of all, what motherboard, and cooler do you have?

You'll need a new cooler like the Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO in order to overclock.

Remember, Ivybridge runs crazily hot compared to sandy. :)

Its a cpu at 2.8 ghz stock. 3.2 is still good. The thing holding me back in MC is my GPU.... AMD x600...
But it also goes up to 97c sometims. mostly in videos. minecraft cant max the cpu but Youtube can.
