So... Here is my new / first build ever. Specs:
Corsair 540 case
EVGA 850 B2 PSU
MSI Z97 Gaming 5 mobo
WD 1 TB HDD
16 Gb RAM @ 1600mhz
i5 4690k
Corsair H100i liquid cooler
Gigabyte GTX 970
Anyway... So now Im getting into overclocking this cpu, something I have never done before. So straight off the bat I bumped it up to 4.4Ghz @ 1.140 Vcore. Stress tests were all good and the temp never got above 45c using Aida64 stress tests. Temps were the same playing Arma 3 for 5 hours straight.
Now I have bumped it to 4.5Ghz @ 1.165 and temps unders stress average 55. Now I may not need that much voltage, I havent messed with it much. I really wanted to stop and have you guys look at my bios and see if I'm missing something. If you all dont mind that is... Would be much appreciated!
By the way, the sticky guide is 10 years old. Any chance for a new one ?
