i5 4690k 4.4GHz @ 1.285Vcore near 85°C intelburntest
Hello, welcome to the community. I have a question about my setup. I recently overclocked my i5 4690K and it's currently running at 4.4GHz @ 1.285v. I experienced a BSoD during Battlefield 1 about two hours in, so I increased the voltage temporarily. After doing an Intel burn test to check temperatures, I noticed they're quite high—around 82-100% load.
Is this typical? I'm using an aftermarket CPU cooler.

Just check what's possible for stability. Higher voltages don't always mean higher temperatures. Values below 1.3 are quite low from an operating system perspective.
VMX is the virtual machine configuration and I'm not sure it matters unless you're using virtualization tools. It's likely turned off by default, but you can probably enable it in the BIOS, I think.

Anything over 80c is a bit high for me, but a lot of people would say it's ok. You are operating at the extreme end of acceptable though. If it's stable, go with it, but yes keep a v close eye on temps and voltages. Your cooler is mid-range and could be improved a little, but should be fine.
