4820k @4,4 Ghz - Inquiry about the LLC configuration for Asrock MB
Hey there,
I’m currently running my 4820k at 4,4 Ghz on an Asrock x79 extreme6 MB.
I’ve found stable performance with a fixed vcore during testing with prime95 and HWMonitor—temperatures stay under 65°C in prime and 55°C while gaming.
I recently learned about the role of LLC in certain situations. I’m considering leaving it at its default setting (Level 1 of 5) or adjusting it manually to Levels 1, 2, or 3.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Your OC seems quite consistent. I’d consider putting the LLC on level 1 or let it auto. It’s useful to provide some stability, but using too much can cause overvoltage. It’s all about finding that balance. Most heavy OCs tend to set LLC to higher levels like 2 or 3, depending on their requirements. If everything else matches and you’re not experiencing any stability problems, keeping it auto might be a better choice right now.
