hi all i had my pc for years now, a month ago I decided to upgrade it somewhat so that it can stay relevant and ill be able to play games on it my original specs were: Asus H97 Plus Intel Core i3 4160 @3.6Ghz Cooler Master 240 AIO(don't remember the exact name) 2x4gb HyperX Fury @1600 Nvidia Gtx960 2Gb Gigabyte Windforce OC Adata 512gb NVMe SSD 500W Cooler Master PSU Windows 11 Pro 22H2 so what I've done is Upgrade To 4770K 2 Additional 4gb sticks of ram bringing the total to 16Gb And an Nvidia Geforce RTX2060Super Since I've done these my PC started to crash randomly sometimes with BSOD with Critical Process Died And sometime it would just freeze these freezes are random, sometimes I'm gaming and this happens, and sometimes on idle the interesting thing is it would happen even in BIOS! sometimes it won't freeze for days and some other times constantly crashes I even ran Furmark and Prime95 at the same time for 24 hours and it didn't crash and temps were Cpu 75 max and Gpu 86 max(I know GPU is a bit hot but these gigabyte cards aren't very well cooled but I tried without it and no luck) but after an hour I was watching youtube and it crash things I've done for troubleshooting: i DDU the Gpu Removed the GPU running on iGPU no luck removed Ram Sticks no luck tried a 600W psu no luck something that tipped me off was Crashing in Bios so I revert back to my old CPU and everything was fine for 7 days straight so I Knew it was the CPU, installed it back and it started crashing again the only thing that seems to help now is to disable Intel Smart step and lock CPU clocks to 3.3 with 1.25 Vcore! at these clocks, it will become a bit more stable and I was able to do daily for 1 or 2 days but 1.25 is a lot although my cooler is handling it and keeping the temps below 80 but still and 3.3 is not good enough, this CPU should boost to 3.9, and out of curiosity I got 4.5Ghz at 1.27Vcore out of it with Cinebecnh score of 5378 at 3.3 it will drop to around 4000 and last week I tried locking it to 4.0Ghz and would work for 12 hours but a crash was guaranteed I played Last of us on this pc,at 3.3Ghz game would run at around 40 with GPU usage around 60% or something @1080p but at 4.5 GHz I was able to get mostly stable 60 and Gpu usage was 100% I know my CPU is probably faulty but wanted to check with you guys so that I be sure I might buy a 4790k to replace it in upcoming month but for now I'm stuck with this so I apperitiate the help and one last thing my monitor is 1080 and I'm okay with it what do you think is it ok to still run a 4th gen? the only downside is my SSD,although its NVMe but its running at 10gb/s and not full speed but I'm ok with it if I want to buy change platform I can only afford 7 or 8th gen at it would be triple the cost of a 4790k thanks for the help

hello my dear friends, i have a question. i am a cs:go player and i wanna have good fps in game. last night, i was thinking 'bout upgrading my gpu to a 3070 / 3060 Ti but i have a problem. my specs ain't great. specs are : *i7-4770K *gigabyte z87x-ud3h(no pcie 4.0) *16 GB of ddr3 1600mhz ram *cooler master thunder 650w psu no 80+ i doubt that my pc will not be bottlenecked. but it's probably a good idea to ask it to experts. so pc wizards out there : will my pc get bottlenecked cuz it has an old 4770k with (maybe) low lanes and my 650w psu? pls hit me up.

This computer was built about a year ago, and has since then been a work in progress. (at time of starting this blog) The specs are: Fractal Design Define R4 i7 4770k @ stock 3.5 ghz with stock cooler ASUS Sabertooth Z87 Radeon R9 270X 2GB 8 GB Corsair Vengeance RAM Apevia 750 Watt Power Supply MAXTHOR 500GB HDD (I don't know the model number of it, but it is pretty old and soon to go) OCZ Agility 4 64GB SSD TP-Link PCI-E Wifi Card (soon to change) Fans: 3 X 140mm Apevia Blue LED Fans 1 X 140mm Fractal Design White Fan 2 X 140mm Apevia Red LED Fan Peripherals: Razer Black Widow (2011) Razer Naga Epic Logitech G230 2 X AOC E2460SWD 24" Monitors 2.1 Logitech Speakers This blog is basically going to be on the finishing touches/upgrades to the computer along with a complete color change. This computer has been a work in progress for nearly 3 years, and probably will forever be one. But before I am almost completely happy with it, there are a couple things I plan on adding in the near future. First, I want to change the overall look of the computer, beginning with the fans. Currently there are 3 extremely bight blue fans in there, and they look cool and all, but in my opinion they really don't match any of the components. Instead of blue, brown, gold, white, and basically every other color in the rainbow, I am going to go for a white and black looking color scheme.

4770k Are any of these coolers good for overclocking a 4770K?
FluorescentGreen5 posted a topic in Cooling
I have a 4770K lying around and am planning on playing around with overclocking it. I'm looking for some cheap coolers that can handle this (surely coolers that can manage an overclocked 4770K have gotten cheaper, right?), and these ones peaked my interest: Cooler Master Hyper H411R Silverstone Krypton K02 Cooler Master Hyper H412R be quiet! Pure Rock Slim 2 Antec A40PRO Antec C40 #4 seems to be the best option here, with #3 being a close second. I'm going to be running the system on an open-air testbench as well. Do you reckon those coolers will be up to the task? -
Hey, boys! I play CS:GO a lot, but throughout the last year my FPS has been dramatically reduced for some reason. I concluded that it must be the GPU (Radeon 290), so I bought myself a GTX 1080. It not only didn't help, but the FPS seems lower than before. I've read that AMD cards run CS:GO better, but still.. On Inferno my average FPS is around 130, but in some areas it can dip as low as 90 consistantly. (Offline, no bots) It's a bit better on other (older) maps, but is still not great. I've tried everything thinkable on the software side to fix this problem, like: - Updating all drivers (made no difference) - Changing Nvidia settings to high performance (made no difference) - Lowering my CS:GO video settings (tried all combinations, but made close to no difference) - Several Launch options and console commands for CS:GO (made no difference) - Closing all applications other than Steam and CS:GO (made no difference) - Overclock my CPU with MSI "OC Genie" (made noticable difference other than PC crashes) The only thing which isn't high end in this build is my CPU, do you guys it would help to upgrade it? I've read some places online that CS:GO is quite CPU reliant, but I don't really know. Current specs: Motherboard: MSI Z97 GAMING 5 CPU: Intel i7-4770k GPU: ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 ROG Strix Gaming PSU: Corsair HX850i 850w RAM: 32GB Hyper X DDR3 MHz OS SSD: Samsung SSD 840 EVO 120GB OEM HDD: WD Desktop Black 3TB Windows 10 home 64bit CPU Cooler (AIO watercooling): Corsair H100i Hydro Series CPU cooler BOIS Version: 1.00 Thanks for any advice! ps: I know this build is unbalanced and not "value friendly". It has it's reasons .

I bought a 4770k last week and so far I love how well it performs in Blender and Premiere, even compared to the 4690k I previously used. I know these badboys are notorious for running very hot, but I think I scored a particularly bad performing one. Long story short: I'm using the same cooler as previously with my 4690k and the temps are outrageous. If I start Prime95 at stock speed, the temps immediately jump up to ~90°C on the hottest core. My 4690k never went past 62°C with the same setup while being overclocked to 4,2 Ghz. A bad mount is debarred, I've reinstalled the cooler multiple times now with the same outcome. Are these temps to be considered normal?

I'm looking to overclock my 4770k again. I am currently running 4.2ghz with a voltage of 1.285v. I am looking to get a little more out of the CPU. But I am unsure of safe voltages. The cooler I am running is a H100i. Thanks for any help.

I have a 4770K, currently on stock cooling. My cooler gets reaaaaaallllly loud and hot on my light 4.2GHz OC, so I put it back to stock clocks. What is the best QUIET CPU cooler under $35? (Don't want a 212 of any variety) Some options: Cryorig H7, C7, M9i beQuiet Shadow Rock 2, Shadow Rock Slim, Pure Rock and Pure Rock Slim Deepcool Gammaxx 400

Anyone have an idea what could cause power cycling on a Asrock Fatality Z87 board with a 4770K, it would power up and them immediately turn off. I've tried going through and trying to post with the bare minimum a PSU, CPU and one stick of RAM, switched dual BIOS's, clear CMO's changed the PSU and such but still nothing. I'm thinking it may be a dead board but throw out some ideas if someone has any. - W-L Asrock Fatality Z87 i7 4770K EVGA 600B 16GB Kingston Hyper X

Hi, I'm looking to do some minor PC upgrades and have an i7-4770k I'll be trying to sell if I can get anything for it. I bought it in late 2013 and it works perfectly, there have never been any problems. I don't have the stock cooler, so I'd be including an H100i at a considerably reduced price. How much is fair to ask for the i7? I have no experience in used computer components so I wanted to get some input. Thanks!

My setup is: a 360mm and 280mm, 60mm thick rads and the fans are running at 600rpm The 4770k has a small OC to 4.2GHz at 1.123v and the gpu is a 980ti but it doesnt really matter here. While running Aida64/OCCT the CPU gets to around 70C (no gpu load) and for all that rad space that looks a bit high. Even if i reset my OC, the cpu still gets to 60c. This is normal or do i need to reapply thermal paste or something else?

Hello everyone, I've just wanted to warn some people who may wanna get a GTX 1080 and pair it with the Intel Core I7 4770k CPU with 1920x1080 screen resolution. I got my EVGA GTX 1080 FTW by the beginning of the week and when I take a look on EVGA Precision X OC, I can clearly see that my GPU doesn't run above 90% of GPU usage. (Saw it while playing on Battlefield 1) At first, my CPU was at it's stock clock (@3.6GHz with Intel SpeedStep Technology) and the GPU usage was around 75%. I've overclocked it to reach @4.2GHz and now the GPU is running between 85 and 90% of usage. Every footage I see on YouTube with a 4770k are @4.5GHz but mine cannot be at this frequency for the moment because of the cooling solution I have that can't handle the temperature and my CPU is part of a very bad batch. (L334B837) I have a Corsair H75 watercooling pre-filled loop (120mm radiator with 1 fan on each side of it) and at @4.2GHz it's heating around 75°C. I will later post some screenshots of EVGA Precision X's monitor and in December I will buy an EK Predator 280 to see if I can get a better cooling on my i7. My actual watercooling is 3 years old, so I think it cannot perform at it's best even after changing the thermal paste (Arctic MX-4). I just hope I will be able to get descent temperatures and maybe try a better overclocking... I've already tried to reach @4.5GHz but my system isn't stable at all. Even if it reaches 90°C sometimes with OCCT stress test, I got a bluescreen during the test telling me my setup isn't right. I've putted each value at the highest voltage recommended before harming the CPU and it was still not stable. My conclusion would be if your i7 4770k can handle @4.5GHz, you may be okay with getting a GTX 1080. If it cannot perform at this frequency, I'm afraid you may have CPU limitations over the GPU on 1920x1080 resolution. Btw, if someone knows my batch (haven't founded anything on the internet), I would be pleased to get more informations about this batch and it's overclocking capabilities. For now it seems I'm not a part of the lucky sillicon lottery. My full specs if you're wondering : Motherboard : Asus Z87-A C2 CPU : Intel Core i7 4770k (Batch L334B837) @4.2GHz GPU : EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 FTW RAM : 4 * 4Gb of Corsair Vengeance @1600MHz PSU : Corsair GS600 600W Cooling : Corsair H75 120mm Monitor : Asus VG278HE 1920x1080@144Hz

Hello, Currently running a 3770 non-k and looking to upgrade. I found a really good deal on a 4770k bundle ( about half the price of an equivalent R5 1600 setup) I also already have a custom watercooling loop so overclocking it will be good! Any ideas? Is its worth it? Thank you in advance

Hey there guys, I am having some issues with my current rig and I originally thought It was OS based but it would appear that for what ever reason my CPU is having a hard time breathing and remaining cool. So time for an upgrade - I watched the LMG video of the Air VS Water cooling and was happy to see that Air still wins the good fight, however I am well aware you always need the right tool for the job so I thought I would ask you guys what would be the ideal replacement for my crappy failing cooler. Thanks for you're time fella's! Look forward to hearing back. i7 4770k 3.5GHZ 16GB DDR4 Kingston " Hyper Beast " GTX1080 EVGA FTW Edition Asus Maximus VI

I can't seem to overclock my 4770k, no matter what CPU frequency I try it crashes during stress testing, I'm trying frequencys such as 4.4ghz at 1.25v all the way up to 1.35v, and yet it still crashes. I have also tried a lot lower frequency such as 4.0ghz at around the same volts as before and it still crashes. I am using intel burn test and prime 95 to stress test.SpecsI7 4770k980ti (oc)16gb corsair value select ram Evga 600w PSUZ97-pro-gamer motherboard Windows 10, m.2 600pCorsair hydro 105 AOI

Hi all, long time channel watcher, new to the forum. I have some questions, namely, I think my motherboard (Asus Maximus VI Formula) is done. I want to test further to be certain that's the culprit, so I'll post what I've tried and what it's doing. Came home, computer was off, LEDs on the GPU and motherboard were lit up, but the case power button and the onboard power button didn't start it. I've tried removing all extraneous components and using a different power supply, and it still doesn't power on, though I occasionally see the backlighting on my keyboard flicker. I tried pulling the memory modules out and tried different modules in different slots, still nothing. Is there anything further I can test, or can I be relatively certain it's the motherboard? Now, if it is the motherboard, that leaves me with a couple of choices. It's out of warranty by a year, and replacing it new is actually $10 CAD more than when I originally bought it. Comparable LGA 1150 boards are similarly pricey. I figure if I'm going to spend >$300, I may as well upgrade since it has been 4 years. This is where I'm stuck in choice paralysis. The 7700k at least seems like a straight upgrade, and has fantastic single core and gaming performance. However, I didn't like the lack of PCI-E lanes, I had to drop my audio card out of my system to run SLI. As far as I understand, the 7700k is still at the same number of lanes, and if I want more I'll either have to go LGA 2066, AM4, or TR4. From benchmarks I've found, and for some reason they don't seem very comprehensive, both Ryzen 5 and Ryzen 7 seem to offer very competitive performance in games and blow it out of the water in most productivity. The 1600/X and 1700/X in particular were ones I was looking at, the 1600/X being significantly cheaper. Upgrading would of course also mean having to get a bunch of DDR4 memory, which is going to tilt the price higher, and probably getting an AM4 bracket for my cooler. The LGA 2066 option doesn't look terribly appealing, as I don't want to be spending >$700 just on a CPU and the 7800X just doesn't seem to compare well to cheaper options. So, given this scenario, what would my best options be? I understand that the 4770k is still a pretty strong CPU, but if I can still sell it for a bit of return that'll be great. Same with the RAM.

Hi, I just bought a 1080 ti and am wondering if I should upgrade my cpu to not get bottlenecked by it. My current specs are as follows 4770k clocked to 4.1 ghz 32 gb 2133 kingston memory noctua dh14 1080 ti ssd Im mainly using the computer to play playerunknowns battlegrounds and am getting pretty shitty performance. im also running windows 7, could that be a problem aswee?

My current rig is a Core i7-4770K overclocked to 4.6GHz and a 980 Ti. I mainly use it for gaming (Diablo 3, PUBG, CODWW2, Shadows of War) and Photoshop CC 2017 work. I am debating if I should wait for Ice Lake and the GTX 2080 to come out or should I go with Coffee Lake and 1080 now? My am interested in getting 960 EVO m.2 drive as I know this should boost performance over my current 850 EVO SSD. Thoughts?

Hi So I´m looking to get into CPU overclocking, already done some on my GPU, and I´m wondering if my specs/temps are decent enough to even bother. I´m running the i7-4770K liquid cooled by the Antec h20 620 120mm rad. After running Prime95 for an hour my temps were maxed out at 72C. Is it worth trying to Overclock or should I get a better AIO cooler if I want to dabble in that stuff? Many Thanks! -
So as the title might suggest, I´m wondering if temps at 71-80 is too hot for an i7-4770k that boosts up too 3,9Ghz? I´m measuring this via HWMonitor while playing Dragon Age: Inquisition, which doesn´t even push the CPU cores any higher than 60-80%. Is this normal or should I check on the cooler? The cooler that I am using is the Antec H2O 620. Many thanks!

sli GTX 1080 Ti Zotac Amp Extreme edition SLI + i7 4770k
ironrafael09 posted a topic in Graphics Cards
Does the Core i7 4770k have enough memory lanes to be run on a dual GTX 1080 Ti Zotac Amp Extreme edition SLI setup? If it doesn't, I'm considering buying a Core i7 7700k for this. How much memory should I use? Thanks for the attention. -
Hi So I was wondering if the temps I´m getting from HWMonitor on my 2 different PC´s looks weird to any of you. One of my desktops is a ryzen r7 1700 with a stock cooler. It´s built in the Enthoo Evolv Micro Atx Case with 2 fans in the front, 2 top, 1 rear. My max temp when gaming is 56C The second desktop is a i7-4770K with a Antec H20 620. It´s built in a Full tower corsair obsidian (can´t remember the full name) with 2 fans in front and 2 rear fans for the radiator. My max temp when gaming is 64C To me this seems a bit sketchy. The water cooled desktop should be cooler in my mind. How much does the 2 fans in the top actually affect the airflow? And is the i7-4770K generally a warmer CPU than the Ryzen R7 1700?
