Hi All
Looking for stable configurations similar to your setup:
CPU: 4770k i7 3.5ghz
Mobo: MSI Z87-GD65
RAM: Corsair Vengence 2133mhz
Cooler: Corsair H105
You mentioned wanting to overclock the CPU to around 4ghz without high voltages, avoiding OC Genie and RAM overclocking. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

4.0 GHz is readily achievable with your i7 4770K.
Disable Turbo Boost, C1E, C States and other power-saving options.
Instant Overclock
Adjust VCore to 1.250V (lower voltages often yield 4.2GHz+ at this setting), BCLK @100MHz, Clock Ratio for all active cores at 40. Keep Uncore at its default level of 35.
For future higher clock speeds, consider raising the multiplier and performing a stress test at the same voltage. To push your CPU to its limits, increase the voltage but monitor temperatures closely; avoid exceeding 90°C continuously. The safe maximum is around 1.35V for continuous use.
Hope this assists!

I might attempt to run on stock volts sync all cores to 4.0 to see how it performs, then I would run realbeanch for a few hours. If overclocking fails, I’d gradually increase the voltage and repeat realbench while monitoring temperatures to keep them below 80°C.

I would consider tweaking the stock volts sync across all cores to 4.0 to see how it performs, then test realbeanch for a few hours. If overheating occurs, gradually increase the voltage and repeat the bench test while keeping temperatures below 80°C.
Hi
Thanks for your advice. Appreciate it.
Which BIOS settings need adjusting for voltage?
Are there other parameters to modify?
Many thanks

I would have some form of temperature tracking during overclocking. The only power I'd use would be the CPU core voltage, keeping it below 1.300. At the peak, I would apply that voltage first, starting at 4.0 volts.
