Hey guys,
first of all my specs :
Gigabyte Z97X-Gaming GT
Intel core i7 4790K (cooled by noctua NHD-15 and sufficient air flow in the case)
2x G.skill ares 1600mhz, 1.5v cl8 4gb
2x G.skill ares 1600mhz, 1.5v cl9 4gb
Nvidia Geforce GTX 970
Now to my problem:
I recently did an upgrade on my CPU from an i5 4460 to said 4790k. I installed the CPU, checked temps and on stock it was running at well over 100C under load so i made sure the cooler was mounted correctly and then did some digging and long story shot: i set Vcore from well over 1.2 to 1.108 and the temps were under control. Now to the current problems. Running it at the stock turbo frequency of 4.4ghz would cause Bluescreens when stresstesting and the system wouldn´t boot properly sometimes so i turned off the turbo and at least in the timeframe that it would BSOD whith turbo on everything ran fine (didn´t have the time to do very long stresstests but no problems were showing up at over half an hour p95 while with turbo on it would crash after hardly 10 seconds).
Now with the stock frequency just the boot problem appears which shows itself in this way: while starting up the BIOS launches and displays that the current settings seem to cause problem and suggests i change them. I tried playing around with the Vcore voltage a little with stock and turbo clock but that didn´t help. Also i never had any problems under normal use with either of the settings except the booting thing.
So to clarify: things i changed in bios: Vcore voltage
Turbo boost off/on
ram timings from 11,11,11,28 to 9,9,9,24
idealy i would likke to run the CPU at the turbo speed but if i could at least achieve a stable system that would be great. ill add a screenshot of the debugging tool for the BSOD.
if you need any more info just let me know.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
Kind Regards
