Hey everyone, I’m trying out some overclocking since my hardware is getting older. I’ve pushed the CPU to 4.5 GHz using manual settings: core voltage at 1.27V and cache voltage at 1.17V on OverClride 1.27v. For RAM, I manually set latency values of 10-11-10-30, speed at 1866MHz, voltage 1.50, based on the manufacturer’s guide (Corsair Vengeance LP, two 4GB banks). During stability tests with previous voltages (1.269 and 1.169), everything worked fine for about two hours. Today, however, the system crashed with a blue screen error (WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR) unexpectedly. I increased the voltage to 1.27 and 1.7, and it ran smoothly afterward. Later, I ran an AIDA64 test and the PC restarted itself without any error messages. It’s been a few days since then, and no issues have arisen with those settings. I’ve attached screenshots from the test and the AIDA64 log. I’m confused about all these voltage numbers—do they make sense? Should I try raising the voltage again? Thanks for any tips.
