Hi guys, I’m looking for your thoughts on these OC settings for my i7 4790k. I’m using it nonstop and want to make sure everything’s stable so the processor doesn’t fail quickly. The settings I have are:

Stable 4.6 ghz:
Multiplier ratio = 46
Min/max cache ratio = 45
Vcore = 1.225
CPU cache = 1.290 (this is my main concern, should it be higher?)
Vccsa = 0.824
Vccio Analog and Digital = Auto (Hwinfo64 shows 1.016v)
Vccin = 1.808v

I really hope some of you can share your opinions (hehehe).

If you're confident in its stability, these settings work well. I'm using 1.24v at 4.6GHz on my i7 4790K.

What are your thoughts on the CPU cache voltage? Is it not too high?

This should be acceptable. If you have concerns, consider minimizing it to identify the source of instability.

I've learned that the cache voltage shouldn't exceed 1.15v continuously... but I'm not sure.

Because each CPU is unique, I cannot predict your model's performance. You need to conduct tests and gradually reduce settings until the system becomes unstable before increasing them slightly.

Please clarify your question about the maximum VCPO for an i7 4790K.

I don't fully grasp why the suggested cache voltage is 1.15v when my cache is set at 1.18v without OC.
