MSI Z-370-A Pro Overclocking
I possess an MSI z-370 a pro motherboard paired with an i5-8600k processor. The OC is set to 5.0 ghz at 1.23 vcore. I'm checking if this configuration is safe for the board in the long run, considering its stability and current temperatures are within acceptable ranges. Please let me know your thoughts.
Hello zach
Your setup is stable at 1.23V on the CORE, which is good. The maximum core voltage is 1.4V and shouldn't be surpassed. Safety depends mainly on voltage and temperatures while operating.

Hello zach
If your system runs smoothly at 1.23V on the CORE then everything is okay. The maximum core voltage should not go beyond 1.4V. It's the voltage and temperatures that really matter when the load is applied.
My CPU temps are around 60 under load, and I think the board temps are similar. I just noticed my board isn't performing well, which makes me a bit concerned, but from what I see it's handling it fine. I wasn't sure about the safe limits before now.
