Overclocking 4690k 4,6GHZ
Overclocking 4690k 4,6GHZ
Hi all,
I increased my i5-4690k to 4,6ghz at 1.256v. After running intelburntest ten times at very high speeds, the maximum temperature I see is 84 degrees. I'm using a Noctua NH-D14 cooler. Is this okay? When I play Battlefield 1 with 64 players, my CPU usage stays between 90-100% and never goes above 60 degrees.
Thanks!

Yes, as long as you did it at high settings it's fine. Intel Burn Test makes your CPU work hard.
Tasks like gaming or rendering probably won't heat the processor much. I'd recommend keeping an eye on the temperatures just in case.

Will do, thanks!

Yes, as long as you did it at high settings it's fine. Intel Burn Test puts a lot of stress on the CPU.
Tasks such as gaming or rendering probably won't heat it much. I'd recommend keeping an eye on the temperatures just in case.
I also downclocked to 4.5ghz because I don't think 4.6 is necessary. If I'm running at 1.256v, should I reduce it a bit as well, or does it really matter?
1.256v seems acceptable; a 100 MHz reduction doesn't seem to cause any issues.
