So I've been attempting to push my i5-4670k to 4.6 GHz from 3.4 to 4.4, but I'm constantly experiencing random crashes. These crashes seem to happen unpredictably, even when the system isn't under heavy load. I've managed to play BF4 for extended periods without any issues, but sometimes while streaming on Twitch, it will abruptly restart and display a message about failing overclock settings. It's clear the problem isn't related to cooling, as I rarely reach temperatures above 70°C during these incidents.
I was wondering if someone could review my configuration and point out any obvious errors that might be causing this issue.
To anyone interested, I discovered the issue. I should have noted that I recently switched from Windows 7 to Windows 10. I noticed the crashes only occurred after a short warm-up, around 10 minutes, but worked fine after restarting. Apparently, the fast boot feature in Windows 10 interfered with some of the OC settings, leading to the problem. I checked the control panel, power options, and changed what the power buttons do, disabling fast boot. Now everything functions correctly.
Increase the voltage to ensure proper operation. Low voltage may lead to hardware issues, particularly when overclocking the CPU. Gradually boost the Vcore in small increments and verify system stability after each change.
The attempt failed due to limitations. The maximum Vcore allowed is 1.3, and raising VCCIN isn't possible.
