How much Vcore? 4690k.
How much Vcore? 4690k.
Currently at 4.6 GHz on my 4690k at 1.232 on the Vcore. Temperatures are quite good this summer, and I'm aiming to check the CPU's maximum stable overclock. I plan to try 4.8Ghz first, then 5 GHz, and I'm curious about a suitable Vcore starting point for 4.8 GHz given my CPU's stability at 1.232 at 4.6 GHz. I'm using an Asetek 570LX (240 MM Rad).
Sorry, the voltage is expected to exceed 1.3 volts - likely between 1.33 and 1.38. This should be fine for brief tests, but not for continuous operation. At 5.0GHz it seems 1.45 to 1.50 might be needed, and I advise against attempting it. A recent Intel study shows degradation doubles every 0.1V rise, making the effect highly sensitive.
for regular tasks i stay under 1.3 volts. if it's a brief situation...1.38 is the max i'd reach, only when temperatures are low.
