Bad 6700K, 4.7 stars at 1.41V works properly during the night
Bad 6700K, 4.7 stars at 1.41V works properly during the night
I'm working on overclocking my 6700k with an Asus z170a, nh-d14 cooler, 16gb 2133 ram.
Passing a 15 minute rog real bench stress test at [email protected] (actual core voltage 1.376V) is successful.
However, running x264 overnight fails at higher voltages (up to [email protected], actual 1.406).
Current motherboard settings are:
47 core ratio, LLC level 6, CPU current capability 130%, CPU power phase Extreme, FCLK 1ghz, CPU core voltage 1.41 (passed 15 min), VCCIO 1.2V (actual 1.224), System agent 1.25V (actual 1.288).
Could the issue be with a faulty chip or missing settings?

Wouldn't mine be below avg since I'm unable to obtain 4.7? Temps stay below 75 at 1.41, I guess I could try applying more voltage and see what happens.
It is vcore that drives up temperature.
Yes, you could likely get a higher multiplier if you were willing to tolerate more vcore.
Considering how good the 6700K is at stock, do you really need more?
One thing to check is your motherboard bios level.
Sometimes there are enhancements for overclocking.

The average chip performance is as follows:
As of 5/2016, the percentage that can achieve an overclock at a reasonable 1.40v Vcore ranges from 2% to 100%.
