IS this a good overclock?
So basically...
I have a 4790k. I overclocked it to 4.7 at 1.265v after just 2 minutes of prime 95, with a blue screen showing I was at 58 degrees. Then I increased the voltage to 1.8 and ran it again. After ten cycles, it still works, though the temperatures are around 64 degrees. So, does higher voltage cause more heat? And does lower voltage affect stability? Thanks a lot!
just keep it under 1.4v and it should work. i had 4790k running smoothly at 4.7ghz with 1.29v and i managed about 55 degrees in games.
I don't think 1.8V and that temperature are correct!!!!!! 1.8 is extremely high and risky. Are you sure you're interpreting this right?
Higher voltage leads to increased power consumption and elevated temperatures. Both of my 4790Ks require more than 1.3V to maintain stability; they need a 4.7Ghz overclock.
Do you mean 1.3v? At 1.8 it would fry your CPU lol..yes, 64C is nothing for a 4790k, the max working temperature is 105 degrees and it starts to drop below 90 degrees plus keep in mind that you won<|pad|>'s not anywhere else in real scenarios will reach such high temperatures than in prime 95, it's not even suggested to run tests in p95 because it can harm your CPU. Just maintain temperatures under 75 degrees for continuous stable operation and you'll be okay.
DonkeyOatie is unsure about the 1.8V reading and temperature. They think it's too high and question if they're interpreting the data correctly. More voltage increases power consumption and heat, which could affect stability. They recall a previous setting of 1.28V and believe that's safe, but haven't tested it recently.
4.7Ghz at 1.280V performs excellently and those conditions are equally impressive.
just keep it under 1.4v and it should work. i had 4790k running smoothly at 4.7ghz with 1.29v and i managed about 55 degrees in games.
The suggested voltage for a 4.4 ghz overclock is not provided in the message.
I'm not sure about that. It seems like Turbo is running on all cores.
