Hi Intel GOD. Could you please take a look at my BIOS to which settings to change? Thanks
Here's the link for the pictures: https://copy.com/gsJEgAWI6w3M
John what issues are you having? Crash? Freeze? Try pushing up the CPU input voltage to 1.9v
When I was running 4.3Ghz with 1.3vcore, AIDA64 Runs for 20minutes no problem. But when I tried Intelburntest, right when I run the test it BSOD. Right now, I'm currently running @4.2Ghz with 1.25vcore and it passed 20 runs of intel burn test on high but the temps are scary lol the hottest it went is 91C but the average is around 75-85C 100% Load. When I try to change the CPU Input Voltage to 1.9v the letter becomes RED. Should I still continue to make it 1.9v? Thanks
2.0-2.1v is the max you want to set the CIV on air. What cooler are you using?

NZXT Kraken X60. I went back to 4.2Ghz with 1.25vcore and here's a quick IBT Test result. I don't know if 115Gflops is normal for a 4.2Ghz overclock. Seems a bit low to me compared to the 124Gflops you got.
*UPDATE* ran IBT on very high and got 120Gflops.
Johnvonmacz asked Intel GOD to review his BIOS settings and suggest adjustments. He shared a link for reference. He mentioned experiencing crashes or freezes, especially when using higher CPU voltages. He described running at 4.3Ghz with 1.3vcore, which worked fine, but switching to 1.9v caused a BSOD during the Intel Burn Test. He noted temperatures reached up to 91°C during high load (average around 75-85°C). He asked whether he should keep using 1.9v or try a different setting.
Another user inquired about the recommended cooler for his NZXT Kraken X60, mentioning a recent IBT test result showing 124Gflops and a concern about performance at 4.2Ghz with 1.25vcore. They also shared an update about testing at very high voltages and received 120Gflops. They asked if core parking was enabled and suggested checking that setting.
