After running various tests with different settings, I reached 4.5ghz at 1.2v. It seems that achieving 4.5ghz requires around 1.3 plus volts. How is this achievable? What's the explanation? I've tested AIDA64 for 20 minutes, used ROG CPU-Z for 10 minutes, and played R6 Siege for an hour—everything appears fine. My Hyper 212 LED showed temperatures of 60c during stress with spikes up to 69c, while gaming stayed between 47-58c.

that's excellent, it took me to 1.3 to achieve 6600k stable at 4.5ghz, clearly you have a top-notch chip.

that's really good, i had to push to 1.3 to get 6600k stable @ 4.5ghz, i think you have a really good chip. So what's next? i don't want to push more than 4.5ghz until i get my liquid cooling.

Summer is approaching, so maintain the usual setting of reducing 200 MHz during this season compared to winter.
