High core voltage and temperatures
High core voltage and temperatures
I just tried to push my Intel core i5 4670k processor beyond its limits, and the outcome feels a bit confusing.
To start with, I only increased the clock speed to 4.2ghz, which doesn’t really reach its full overclock potential (some users are hitting stable speeds around 4.8ghz).
I adjusted the CPU core voltage to 1.05V and the ring voltage to 1.025V, but these values seem significantly lower than what the chip actually requires.
After a stress test, here’s what I’m considering: should I change the core voltage to 1.24?
I have a Cooler Master Seidon 120M CPU cooler, which is said to be quite effective, so temperatures should stay within normal limits.
Edit: I’ve noticed my CPU operates at 0.1V when idle, while my temperature stays steady just under 30 degrees. Is that typical?
Thanks!

could just be my work network, but I don't see any results :/
