BIOS is set to default, i5 6600k voltage exceeding 1.2V
I tried the Fast Tuning 5-way Optimization in AI Suite III that came with my motherboard. It reached up to 4.3Ghz @1.25V and everything worked perfectly. After that, I moved to Extreme Tuning and achieved 4.7Ghz @1.3V. While playing CS:GO and PUBG, I noticed stuttering every few minutes. I reset my BIOS and then got 3.9Ghz (Intel Turbo) at very fluctuating voltages above 1.3V during startup. My BIOS reports a voltage of 1.2V but it keeps going higher. Help would be greatly appreciated!
I'm new to overclocking too.
