Overclocking i7-6800k using h100i cooler

08-17-2016, 12:25 PM

My i7-6800k runs at 4.2 ghz with 1.3v on the motherboard automatically, and temperatures stay below 67 degrees on Intel burner. I thought about increasing it to 4.4 ghz and then adjusting the voltage to 1.43, but temperatures reached 80c max. Should I try lowering the voltage manually or is this typical?

Certainly within the range below 1.4 but avoid a fixed value of 1.39; explore how far you can go at 4.3

It might be better to remove it manually since keeping it at 200 MHz isn't reliable, especially with lower voltage—try 4.3 instead.

1.43v and 80c are excessive and generate too much heat. Adjust to 4.2ghz and set the voltage manually for better temperatures.

What is the maximum voltage you should avoid? 1.4 volts.

I achieved 4.4 ghz with a voltage of 1.385 not exceeding 80c during the 10 run Intel burn test. Is that sufficient?
I’ll also attempt to play Witcher and BF1 for an hour to check performance.

Confirm temperatures in various activities, though it looks more polished.

During gameplay with all configurations at maximum heat, the temperature reached 57 degrees Celsius.

Sounds good. Should be set up
