cpu oc 5ghz

[Adam trzaska]

my pc is a 

i5 9600k at 5ghz

gtx 1080 

16gb ram 2400mhz

msi mpg carbon pro ac z390

650w evga psu

1tb samsung evo

4tb hdd

 

ive got my new i5 9600k 2 days ago ive overclocked it to 5 ghz its fine and runs good without crashing only thing i changed is core voltage from 0.913v to 1.300v is that alright or would people recommend to set different voltage or maybe change the vccin voltage and ring voltage? 

but like i said it runs fine at 1.3v doesnt get past 60C underfull load for good while its getting cooled by a kraken x62 

(cinabench scores 2883 roughly)

Hello,

 

It's all good, you can try to lower the voltage if you want even better temp. Or you can try with more frequency

That voltage seems fine to me, and as long as temperatures are under control it should be fine. 60°C under load is good.
You can always try slightly lowering the voltage by 0.1v until you start experiencing crashes then increase it again until it's stable, but I think you're fine with where you're at now.

Max 1.4V for these things, at 60C you're definitely safe.

I OC'd my 9700k to 5.1Ghz without touching the voltage, it is on auto.

It never went higher than 1.25 ish

[Adam trzaska]

If i keep it on auto which is like 1.1v pc wont boot jsut crash 

[Adam trzaska]

Even tho i got like my setup above 1080, i5 9600k my games still seem run pretty bad 

Like for example bf5 i seen poeple same set up as mine run it at way past 100fps ultra settings 1080p

 

I get around 50-80fps on ultra settings and idk y cuz all temps are good and cpu usage is 100% and gpu usages is 80%

 

Any ideas?

What type of load do you test with to get 60C ?

When it comes to voltage anything below 1,35V is fine but you should always aim to have as little voltage as needed.

When overclocking it isn't always about how much voltage you throw at your CPU that matter but adjusting the LLC can also be important.

A stable vcore is better than a high vcore (usually)

Your slower 2400MHz RAM maybe? Though probably wouldn't make that much difference.

Is it a single 16gb stick or 2x8GB? Is it running in dual channel mode?

See if you can run it at 2666MHz or even 3000MHz. You'll likely need to adjust voltage and timings.

Sounds like a driver issue maybe...is performance subpar on every game?

This thread is depressing. I need almost 1.37v for 5ghz on my 8700k. Need 1.42v for 5.1 to even boot 

[Tristerin]

RAM speed wont affect gaming with Intel (theres an article somewhere on this website about it)

If you are running in single channel, yes that will hurt either platform

 

If you are playing Online mode, there is also a level of difference between that and single player, and max FPS.  Btw in BF5 on RR2 in sig I average 80 FPS at 1080p and your rig should technically beat it out (and that's my average FPS in online play at max settings).

 

If you just got the CPU 2 days ago, did you migrate a Windows install over and *plug and play* it?  If so yea I agree with @steelo theres a driver issue in play here.  I personally reinstall with any big upgrade.

No worries lol, my 8600K needed similar. Luck of the draw.

I using 2x8gb ram 2400hmz from tridenz but what u mean by reinstall windows like yes i did litrally jsut put the new cpu and motherboard in 

Any chance you think it could be my gpu?

So if you had an HDD or SSD with your Operating System on it, and then just replaced a main component or two, this is the likely culprit.

 

While Windows 10 is good at having generic drivers to make things communicate well enough to function, that does not mean that it will be the drivers required to operate...optimally.

 

You need to reinstall your operating system so that it is set up to work best with your new components.  At least this is how I would attack this issue given the description.
