You are using your i7 4790K on a Gigabyte Z97 GAMING 3 board with a Corsair H-100i cooler, and a Gigabyte R9 390 G1 GAMING GPU with 8GB VRAM. To determine the correct voltage/multiplier settings for both CPU and GPU, you need to check your motherboard's BIOS documentation or consult the manufacturer's guidelines for the specific voltages and clock speeds you're aiming for. Since you already have the CPU at 4.7 GHz with a 1.325V supply, verify if these values match the recommended settings and ensure you're not over-supplying power.

This OC is fine, but if you're concerned about reducing the CPU lifespan, lowering the OC and voltage won't affect gaming performance.

A suitable voltage would be something reasonable. I tested as low as 1.275v but it didn’t boot into Windows. I’m using Windows 10, which can be sensitive to overclocking. Regarding the GPU, I’ll look into the error log to determine if the issue is with the CPU or GPU.

I'm wondering if you've noticed anything unusual about my responses lately. It's been a bit slow on my end, but I'm trying to maintain a steady performance without risking overvoltage... Any suggestions?
