Overclocking way past 4.5ghz and still low temps

[G H O S T]

Hello you beautiful people 

Back again with a puzzle 

 

So I decided to overclock my 5930k way past the point of 4.5ghz to now 4.9ghz @2.10 volts and I am now in shock as my temps never go higher then 65*C on full load and stable with tests for 2 hours in each bench/stress tests and starting to think does this CPU even heat up?? 

 

And also I have the ring at 3500mhz 

 

Has anybody else been lucky to get the x99 platform with overclocks to 5ghz just on water and low temps and should I see how far this thing will go without nitrogen and this cpu as not been delided

2.1 volts !

I know will post some pictures in a sec ... it does not want to heat up

[BetterThanLife]

2.10V !?

Great chip.

holy fuck thats a lot of volts. are you certain its actually running at the desired speed/voltage while under load? verify with cpu-z

that CPU would be dead already if you actually applied 2.1V, but i'm pretty sure that your overclock is not applying at all.

Keep pushing your CPU higher. Just make sure to stay below 5 volts.

I'm.checking it now as its flicking between 1.7 2.1 and might have to check the bios if theres something I have missed as it's set to fixed voltage with turbo off

Color me surprised that chip can even still work, WTF is your motherboard doing? catching heat rays from it?

Just zap that shit with 5 volts and 10GHz, that thing is invincible.

 

Seriously though 2.1 is absurd, turn that down.

Haswell/Haswell-E dies at 1.8V. You're talking about CPU Input volts. Totally different thing.

I'm starting to think theres a issue with a sensor as my radiator is pretty hot and my watercooling tubes are going pretty soft!!

What about some benchmarks? Run Cinebench and see if your score blasts other 5930k's out of the water. My guess is your score will actually be quite lower.

Somthing is going wrong here I'm going to look at a bios update it's like fire in the case

I'd imagine so. Jet fuel might not melt steel beams, but a 5930k at 2.1 volts sure as shit will.

I wish I think theres a issue with the bios just updating it to see what's going on

don't ever overclock again.

[G H O S T]

Okay bios updated and I now have a reading on whats it running and what is set

whats your motherboard? there's probably like an overvoltage protection, it won't let you go above 1.5V or whatever unless you flick a switch on the motherboard.

and seriously, i'll say it again, 2V will kill your CPU instantly.

I think it was was I was supposed to set the vccin to 2.1 not the core serves me right for rushing
