Prime95 OC error
Prime95 OC error
Guys,
overclocked my i5 4690k to 4.4ghz at 1.150v and encountered an issue while testing Prime95. Any advice?

Reduce the overclock or boost the voltage. With adequate cooling, you might attempt 1.175v. If successful, raise it to 4.5 and check stability.
Yes. Reduce the overclock or boost the voltage. With proper cooling, you can attempt 1.175v. If that succeeds, raise it to 4.5 and check stability. 1.175v proved stable, though it was a very hot Prime95 test—extremely warm even with my H60 Corsair WC setup. It would boot at 1.150 but not at 1.165... odd behavior. Gaming worked at 1.150 with manageable heat, but I couldn't overlook the issue.
Juannfox shared some tips on adjusting settings. They suggested lowering the overclock or raising the voltage. Using good cooling helped, they mentioned trying 1.175v and saw it worked. If that didn’t work, they recommended going up to 4.5v and checking stability. Gaming was stable at 1.150 with manageable heat. They noted Prime95 generates unusually high temperatures, even with their system. They advised monitoring temperatures during games and avoiding anything above 80. Thanks for the feedback.
This isn't a word and keep typing it!
Sorry if it bothers you much, but I think the person asking is more concerned about the topic.

1.175v worked well but was extremely hot during the Prime95 test, even with my H60 Corsair WC setup. It would boot at 1.150 instead of 1.165... odd.
Gaming ran smoothly at 1.150 with acceptable temperatures, though I couldn't overlook the error.
I’d go for 1.175v and monitor temperatures during games. If they stay below 80°C, it’s safe. Prime95 generates heat unlike normal use.
Thanks for the downvote, by the way.

Hlsgsz shared their experience and suggestions regarding overclocking and voltage adjustments. They mentioned trying different voltages and temperatures to find a stable setup, noting that 1.175v worked but was very hot during testing. They recommended starting at 1.150v for stability and then moving up if needed. The conversation also included some playful remarks and a promise to test under gaming conditions.
