4670k Stable at 4.5Ghz
4670k Stable at 4.5Ghz
Completed adjustments to my OC on the 4670k using an Evo 212 cooler. System is stable at 4.5 Ghz with peak temperatures around 75-80°C during Aida64 stress test. I adjusted Vcore to 1.31V and Cache to 1.25V for stability. Cache speed is set to 3.9Ghz. CPU VRM operates at 1.81V. This setup seems safe for a Haswell system. I’m seeing solid Geekbench scores—4050 single core and 13530 multi-core at 4.5 Ghz.
Also, figuring out how to fine-tune the voltage so it only overvolts the CPU when needed. Dynamic voltage helped during stress tests but didn’t lower it in regular use. I’m using a Z87 Asrock Extreme 3 as my MOBO.
Do you need assistance? Are there any specialists remaining who have worked on Haswell?
