overclocking 4670k

[kinkywink]

so i decided to jump in the over clocking boat.. so far i put my voltage up to 1.2v and multiplier to 42 - booted up and running 100% load at a maximum of 71 degrees (cm hyper212 evo is the cooler)

should i try increase the multiplier a little more? maybe 43 or 44? or should i decrease voltage a little?

A general rule of thumb is to keep the temps below 80ish, and the voltages below or at a max of 1.3v

hmm okay, by temps atm are dropping and what not but between 37-50 degrees

You could try 4.4 but the difference between 4.2 and 4.4 probably isn't worth it. 4.2 with those temps and voltage seems good to me so i would probably just leave it. Up to you though!

ops no i read it wrong haha there between 69 and 59. if i decrease voltage some that should reduce the temp right? because if i do that then i could try for 1.15 volts or something

decreasing voltages usually leads to lower temps however you will have to test if lower voltages will remain stable or not. Haswell chips tend to be abit eh overclocking wise so i doubt you will be able to hold 4.2ghz under 1.2v

hmm okay well anything over 3.4ghz is an improvement

im yet to overclock mine, maybe one day soon

personally, all i did was change 2 things to o/c, you should defo do it

Keep the same voltage and push for as high of a oc you can get it with it staying stable. Your temps should stay about the same since temps rely on your voltage and not your clock speed.

Mines clocked at 4.4ghz with 1.33v. Highest temp was 76 degrees on water at full load.
