Want assistance with taking off or reducing an overclock?
Want assistance with taking off or reducing an overclock?
Hey, I just got a new PC from CyberPower. I didn't realize until later that it was overclocked and I'm hoping to bring the clock down. I've never done overclocking before, so I'm a bit nervous about doing it wrong. My goal is to lower the temperature since my CPU gets too hot sometimes.
Here are my specs:
- GeForce GTX 970
- Intel Core i7 6700K
- 16GB RAM
The current overclock settings are:
- Voltage: 1.356V
- Core speed: 4400MHz
If you need more details, just let me know. Thanks in advance!
you can lower the core voltage to 4000 MHz since that's the standard for that CPU. For the voltage, just reduce it slightly and check stability during overclocking. you may discover that your system remains stable at a lower voltage than the original Intel specifications, which will also help keep things cooler.
